The AS agreement was negotiated with NW. At least that's how I understand it...
The way I understand it there were some key players that were involved in all of them.
The AS agreement was modified to account for the NW AS agreement. IOW the Section 1 was in fact modified when DAL and NW merged...
I agree that most of these things are in place now with little room for remedies. That's why it is so important to understand and learn from the mistakes and the successes. Something that's not possible if one doesn't allow for criticism of sections that are lacking.
If we want to avoid past mistakes we need to acknowledge them, study them and ensure they don't happen again.
or
we just don't admit to mistakes and continue...
