Not true. Other L-188 Electra operators in the U.S. during the early and mid 1960's besides American, Braniff and Eastern included National, Northwest, Pacific Southwest and Western.

1. Eastern operated this flight with an Electra; however, the service did not stop in Nashville.

14. Lufthansa has been ruled out, the 747 Combi was not one of the aircraft operated on this itinerary, the second connection was not made in Boston, Continental did not operate the third flight and the service did not stop in Denver en route to Albuquerque. The third flight was operated with a 727-200.
