9) This is a guess because I can only pull up a WA timetable from two years before... WA had one nonstop DC-10 flight from Miami (MIA) to Fort Lauderdale (FLL), which was a 25 minute flight. The flight originated in Los Angeles, with a route that was LAX-MIA-FLL. There were four flights in each direction from LAX to MIA, all of which were operated by DC-10s. I would say that was a lot of service on that route provided by WA back then.
10.) NW flew from LAX nonstop to HNL, SAN, MSP and SEA, all with DC-10s. The scheduled flight time of the LAX to SAN flight was 35 minutes.
Hey Tony!
9) An excellent guess! However, the route in question was actually located further north on the eastern seaboard of the U.S......
10) Absolutely correct!
