flew both of these - TW in 1985 and DL in 2001

other short widebody trips in my log: NA D10 LAX-SAN in 1977, EA L10 SEA-PDX in 1978 and PDX-SEA in 1979, TW L10 JFK-BOS in 1984

in the mid-70s TW ran a daily L10 LAX-DAY-IND-LAX; this was a "milk run" for a lot of govt and industry folks traveling to and from Wright-Patterson AFB, but I believe they sold the DAY-IND leg separately
