succession of problems with Yank tourists on the Track Trip
Don't I remember them well!!!! The number of times that Connair (ASP-ISA) didn't connect with Bush Pilots (ISA-CNS) caused one Tour Operator in Long Beach (NRTA/AARP) to put the bight on TAA for an over-ride commission on all TAA sector fares that they used... or guarantee the ASP-CNS sector with an F27. It was cheaper to operate the F27!! I did the deal with Geoffrey Bowen-Jones and Paul Edwards in Ops.

The rest is history... it became a DC9 sector.
