This would seem reasonable under those circumstances however I was never 
associated with this operation so wouldn't know.

This, I probably would know about.  You said AAL but I wish you could 
obtain exact information on the exact date and Aircraft Tail number.  
The reason this is suspect is that until Deregulation we were not 
allowed to fly into Denver.  And the 707 was probably gone by 
Deregulation so something doesn't make sense here.  Was it a Charter?  
Could you have mistaken the wrong Company?  Could you research it with 
the FAA Records and give us the exact information.  I do know that it 
would have been a Ferry Crew from Tulsa that would have that 
responsibility.  Our Operation into Denver was exclusively 727 so would 
be interested in the FACTS of this case.  Thanks....Jim....
