How WN3729 actually runs

Pro Flight Search has tracked every published board update for WN3729 across the SMF and PHX boards: schedule changes, gate pushes and actual clocks. Early read — pattern not clear yet. Only 3 completed legs so far: left noticeably late (~38 min) but landed a little late (~11 min). Not enough to call it.

The verdict above is that record speaking, so it reflects how WN3729 operates rather than what the timetable promises. Numbers refresh as new flights operate.
