Air California Douglas DC-9 

N6961, 1968, By Bill Larkins via Ed Coates Collection: In March of 1968 Air California leased a couple of DC-9s from Continental until delivery could be made of their Boeing 737s.   Here's one of them at San Francisco - photo by Bill Larkins. When the year's lease was up they did not return to CAL, but were sold to Texas International.
