Where were the 707Fs' destinations?

LAX, ORD, SFO, ELP, LGA, and TUS are correct. JFK, SAN, PHX, ACA, PSP, STT, STX, MEX, SAT, DTW, AUS, OKC, BNA, SJU, PHL, BOS, LAS, and STL have been ruled out.

4- even though JoeDTW hasn't dropped a hint, just for grins let's see if there was a 1x (tag-on from LAX/SFO/LGA) to someplace we've talked a lot about ... TUL
