How AA6243 actually runs

Pro Flight Search has tracked every published board update for AA6243 across the ROC and ORD boards: schedule changes, gate pushes and actual clocks. Early read — pattern not clear yet. Only 3 completed legs so far: left a little late (~15 min) but landed about 14 min early. Not enough to call it.

The verdict above is that record speaking, so it reflects how AA6243 operates rather than what the timetable promises. Numbers refresh as new flights operate.
