Let's try New Orleans to New York...

10. In 1968, two Canadian-based airlines were operating Vickers Viscount turboprop aircraft. One was Air Canada. Name the other air carrier.

For some reason I'm getting a mental image of Quebecair and its flights to Hava - er, Montreal...
2. New York Idlewild is correct; however, this flight did not depart from New Orleans.

10. Ah, the airline was not Quebecair (although QB was operating the Fairchild F-27 at this time). Please guess again!
