How AA5255 actually runs
Pro Flight Search has tracked every published board update for AA5255 across the SDF and PHL boards: schedule changes, gate pushes and actual clocks. Early read: no clear pattern yet. Only 3 completed legs so far: left a little late (~6 min) but landed about 18 min early. Not enough to call it.
The verdict above is that record speaking, so it reflects how AA5255 operates rather than what the timetable promises. Numbers refresh as new flights operate.
