How AA3430 actually runs

Pro Flight Search has tracked every published board update for AA3430 across the MEM and DCA boards: schedule changes, gate pushes and actual clocks. Early read: no clear pattern yet. Only 3 completed legs so far: left right on schedule but landed about 29 min early. Not enough to call it.

The verdict above is that record speaking, so it reflects how AA3430 operates rather than what the timetable promises. Numbers refresh as new flights operate.
