If those dimensions are correct, I'd be terrified of someone brushing
against one of those wings as they were walking by and ripping a plane
from its foundations.

My preference would be to organize a strong enough mounting bracket
and mount the planes vertically or sideways higher up on a wall.

My guess is that anybody smart enough to be in the airplane business
knows how to protect one, even if it is just a model ... like maybe
having displays behind roped off areas, you reckon?

Almost a guarantee, eh?

Not in today's world. Besides, the people designing planes and the
people in charge of the displays are bound to be different. Mr. Murphy
is in charge of that little facet, isn't he?
