Other airports that I'd be interested are Hollywood Burbank, Long Island Republic, Greater Rockford, Hobby (Houston) in 1972 and Manhattan Regional (Kansas) in 1977. Given one choice, it would be MHK though that would not be really a good quiz due to limited service. I think in 1977, MHK had not quite reached the jet age though it did soon afterwards. For a quiz, Burbank is probably the best of those listed but a bigger airport is probably even better (like LGA, DCA, SFO).
Next month, I'll put together some questions involving BUR in 1972 for you.
Does anyone else have a request?
