NWA was nearly evenly split between MSP & DTW with spare capacity at each. There were certainly IRROPS but I don't remember any quite as impacting as those we've seen recently with ATL.

With the merger they did move a number of connecting pairs from MSP to ATL. That does provide some more efficiency with some connections but also creates some longer legs and creates much bigger IRROPS problems.
