2) This airline was flying nonstop jet service between El Paso (ELP) and Greater Southwest Airport (GSW) which was the airfield serving Fort Worth, TX at the time. Name the air carrier and the aircraft used.

3) You need to fly from Detroit (DTW) to Boston (BOS) and would like to travel on a twin engine jet. You've identified a direct flight that makes two stops en route. What airline and aircraft type would you be flying on?

4) This airline was flying a three stop direct service from New York (JFK) to Los Angeles (LAX). One of the stops was in San Diego (SAN). Identify the airline and equipment flown on the route.
Looks like a clean sweep for American Airlines for all four:

1)BNA-TUL: Boeing 727
2)ELP-GSW: Boeing 727
3)DTW-ROC-SYR-BOS: BAC 111
4)JFK-ORD-TUS-SAN-LAX: Boeing 720
