Well, I want to say this was Braniff International with a 727 via DFW and IAH.....but that might be too obvious.

So let's go with Eastern with a B727-200 via ATL and IAH.


Good choice. Eastern is correct! Here's the schedule...

Eastern EA 649 Minneapolis (MSP) 355p-704p D Atlanta (ATL) 820p-917p S Houston (IAH) 952p-1034p Corpus Christi (CRP)
