Yep! None taken. I tried to quickly (and poorly/wromgfully) explain why one might be confused regarding Ozark and AA as well as the old carriers merger.
"A quick overview of Ozark Air lines 1950 - 1986
Ozark started commerical service September 1950 (4 - DC3 aircraft) between St. Louis, Missouri USA (Park Airport) and Chicago, Illinois with enroute stops at Springfield, Decatur and Champaign Illinois.
The airlines ceased operating under the name of Ozark Air Lines October 1986 when TWA bought the carrier and took over it routes and aircraft."
