6. Wouldn't this one be Northeast International Airways with a DC-8????

12. Cheyenne (This would have been a REALLY REALLY short CYS-DEN flight, did you ever fly it Seat 2A?), Casper (in 1983 a Frontier 737 landed w/o it's landing gear down) http://fyv.tripod.com/FL_737CPRincident.jpg , Riverton, Jackson, Laramie & Cody

13. Billings, Bozeman, Kalispell, Great Falls, Missoula, Miles City & Butte.

Dinner must be ready since the Dog is going postal & just got a call from my boss saying I may not have to go in tomorrow
1) Correct! It was good old CO with a DC-9-30. I believe the routing with the D9S was BFL-LAS-IAH.

4) Correct again! OZ flew OMA-LAS nonstop with a DC-9-30 daily except on Tuesdays.

6) Northeastern International (QS) is correct! However, the equipment was a Boeing 727-100.....but QS did operate DC-8s on other routes as well.

12) The six (6) destinations in Wyoming served by Frontier with Boeing 737-200 jet service were....

Casper (CPR) - BTW, WA operated the 73S into CPR back in the day....

Cheyenne (CYS) - BTW, WA flew the 73S into CYS at one point as well.....

Jackson (JAC)

Laramie (LAR)

Riverton (RIW)

Rock Springs (RKS)

So you did pretty well with your answers!

13) The seven (7) cities in Montana served by Frontier with the B737-200 were.....

Billings (BIL)

Bozeman (BZN)

Great Falls (GTF)

Helena (HLN)

Kalispell (FCA)

Missoula (MSO)

West Yellowstone (WYS) - BTW, WA served WYS as well on a seasonal basis with the 73S at one point.....
