2. Time to provide an answer.....this was Cordova Airlines (CD) operating a Convair 240. And for the record, my hint was in error as Cordova was based in Alaska. However, by 1968 Cordova Airlines had been acquired by Alaska Airlines which was (and is) based in the Seattle area. Several flights operated by Cordova with the CV-240 appeared in a 1967 AS timetable. Alaska Air was also operating the CV-240 at this time.
