How AA1718 actually runs

Pro Flight Search has tracked every published board update for AA1718 across the SAT and DCA boards: schedule changes, gate pushes and actual clocks. Early read — pattern not clear yet. Only 2 completed legs so far: left right on schedule but landed about 10 min early. Not enough to call it.

The verdict above is that record speaking, so it reflects how AA1718 operates rather than what the timetable promises. Numbers refresh as new flights operate.
