How DL1707 actually runs

Pro Flight Search has tracked every published board update for DL1707 across the DTW and BOS boards: schedule changes, gate pushes and actual clocks. Early read: no clear pattern yet. Only 1 completed leg so far: left a little late (~16 min) but landed right on schedule. Not enough to call it.

The verdict above is that record speaking, so it reflects how DL1707 operates rather than what the timetable promises. Numbers refresh as new flights operate.
