How AA2872 actually runs

Pro Flight Search has tracked every published board update for AA2872 across the FSD and DFW boards: schedule changes, gate pushes and actual clocks. Early read — pattern not clear yet. Only 3 completed legs so far: left heavily delayed (~152 min) but landed noticeably late (~36 min). Not enough to call it.

The verdict above is that record speaking, so it reflects how AA2872 operates rather than what the timetable promises. Numbers refresh as new flights operate.
