Suddenly the phone rings. Not so fast, says your boss. I need you in St. Louis by Monday morning. Oh no! You’ll have to fly out tomorrow afternoon. Unfortunately, because it’s Sunday on Thanksgiving weekend, all of the mid-day, afternoon and evening flights are sold out. The only thing available is a four-stop flight departing Philadelphia tomorrow morning at 6:35am. So be it. Book it, Danno! Identify the airline, the enroute stops and the equipment please.

The fact that you haven't explicitly mentioned availability of F, or that the equipment was a jet, leads me to believe we may have an American Airlines Lockheed Electra; I don't recall the big turboprop serving PHL that late in its AA career, but what the heck ... let's say Washington National (DCA), Charleston WV (CRW), Cincinnati (CVG), and Louisville (SDF)

I like your creativity in approaching this answer, J! For the record, the airline and aircraft did offer First Class seating, it was not American Airlines AND best of all - you've correctly identified one of the stops, that being Louisville (SDF). Louisville was the third stop.

Please, do carry on! ^
