I'm tempted to go with Air Atlanta but I seem to recall it served only the major Florida airports. As such, let's go with a Florida Express BAC-111 - one of which I flew into PIE (from MCO) back in 1984

11. An excellent guess, sir! However, I seem to recall that Florida Express primarily operated hub and spoke service from Orlando and thus did not fly very much in the way of point-to-point service. And Air Atlanta is not the airline we are looking for here, either. So here's a hint: the equipment operated by the air carrier in question was a turboprop (and it was not one of the smaller propjet types).

Hmm... a big propjet, huh... how about Key Air operating a Convair 580.
