What do you think the fleets of Eastern, National, Braniff, and Western = Airlines would have looked like today if they had survived without going = bankrupt or being merged into another airline. No right or wrong = answers here - just pure speculation Eastern: Eastern Express would have changed to Regional Jets. These = would have used the Regjional Jets for backup on the AIr Shuttle. 727's = replaced by 757's. DC-9's gone, replaced by A320 family. National: Replaced their 727's with 757's and used 767's for = international flights. =20 Braniff: DC-8's replaced with 757/767, Western: More 737's, no 727's, Western Express greatly expanded.
