in the last day or so, it occurred to me that the way I posed these two questions was setting up a lot of back-and-forth with respect to getting to the answers ... and I was right (!)

But what the heck.....
Wild guess time:
4. Piedmont operating both the Boeing 737-200 and the Fairchild-Hiller FH-227 into Newark (EWR).
partial credit to
jlemon, but challenging to allocate: he has identified both turboprop models in the 1974 PI fleet, and correctly listed EWR as one of the three airports (in
q3) that saw just the 737 and the Fairchild ... this of course gives away that in
q4 there was only one city -- but not ORD -- that saw PI's YS-11 and 737
