correct (the OAG doesn’t differentiate between the 747-100 and -200, but I don’t think the airline in question operated the -200); moreover, I would have stated that a change of airports was required between 4A and 4B
4C- ME
partially correct (still need to identify the codeshare airline), 707
correct
PE did operate BMH-EWR but maybe not in 1983.
This is going to be a hard question. Birmingham didn't have far flung flights.
4A - BMH-ORD, United, Boeing 737-200
4B - ORD-SNN-DUB, Aer Lingus, Boeing 747
4C - DUB-BEY, MEA, Boeing 707
Frankly, I am skeptical that there was a Dublin Beirut route.
