I'm guessing this is Florida. In 1970 let's suggest MIA, FLL, WPB, SRQ, TPA, MCO, JAX. Eastern to all, National to most, Northeast to a few. Runner up is maybe New York state itself, all those upstate points served by the One-Elevens of American and Mohawk.

Excellent work, WHBM! Florida is not the state I'm looking for, but New York is. Additionally, I've found one more state with service to the three NYC airports from an equal number of its own airports.

Any thoughts on which state this is?

HINT: Focus on flights from "more airports" rather than "more cities".

Also, when I get home tomorrow I will list which Florida cities had nonstop service to the NYC trio of airports.
