How UA128 actually runs

Pro Flight Search has tracked every published board update for UA128 across the GIG and IAH boards: schedule changes, gate pushes and actual clocks. Early read — pattern not clear yet. Only 1 completed leg so far: left a little late (~14 min) but landed right on schedule. Not enough to call it.

The verdict above is that record speaking, so it reflects how UA128 operates rather than what the timetable promises. Numbers refresh as new flights operate.
