I'm make a guess based on elimination, proximity and probability.

The airline with the closest hub in the region and also operating MD-80s at the time was CO, so the flight originated in DEN (Stapleton) and guessing it stopped at Rapid City, SD (RAP).

28- this sounds like it may have been an early incarnation of Allegiant, most likely with an MD-80

40- I'll start the speculation with a Convair 880 stopping at Atlanta (ATL), Dallas (DAL), and San Diego (SAN)

40- I don't think DL served any other destinations between DAL and LAX, so the question comes down to whether the missing stop was before or after ATL ... St. Louis (STL) and New Orleans (MSY) respectively fit the bill, but I expect we're actually looking for a less obvious point ... how about Orlando (probably ORL, as I don't remember the Air Force agreement for airline operations at McCoy AFB [MCO] being in place that early)
