How 5Z860 actually runs

Pro Flight Search has tracked every published board update for 5Z860 across the JNB and CPT boards: schedule changes, gate pushes and actual clocks. Early read: no clear pattern yet. Only 1 completed leg so far: left noticeably late (~23 min) but landed right on schedule. Not enough to call it.

The verdict above is that record speaking, so it reflects how 5Z860 operates rather than what the timetable promises. Numbers refresh as new flights operate.
