... so which airline was bringing F service into their system aboard the 72S? the only one I can think of might be USAir, who had started to expand westward from their Pittsburgh (PIT) hub (I didn't think they were in PHX that early, but ok ...)
11- mumble mumble again ... was gonna say "Northwest, Chicago (ORD), DC-10" but "widebody" would have probably appeared in the original question ... AA, DFW, 707
10. Ah, I had earlier ruled out the B727-100 when you initially guessed Eastern.....and yep, it was USAir operating B727-200. However, this flight did not stop in Pittsburgh (PIT) so we are still looking for the intermediate stop.
11. Nope, it wasn't AA or NW and the flight was not operated with a 707 or DC-10 (or any other wide body aircraft type) and the first stop wasn't Chicago (ORD) or Dallas/Fort Worth (DFW).
