14?
That must be pushing a record for non-military, non-water bombers/sprayers in one place.

Back when they were being retired from commercial service. I recall seeing a bunch in Lewiston, Idaho pending sale.

Correct. The "modern day" record as far as I recall is still TOM's last gathering in 2004 at a dozen. Brad's gathering may have had a dozen in the past decade as well (but not more than that). The goal is for them to all fly together and that has for sure not been more than a dozen.
