Correct. And if I am not mistaken, PE had coincidentally purchased those aircraft from Braniff.

And the air carrier in question was not Eastern.

Plus, Orlando (MCO) was one of the stops. However, TAL (?) was not the other stop. Did you actually mean Tallahassee (TLH)?
Yes, I meant TLH. Landing a DC-8 at TAL, a report airport in Alaska with a 4400' gravel runway would have been interesting, not to mention outside Florida.

Congrats to WHBM for giving the correct answer.
