How AA6501 actually runs
Pro Flight Search has tracked every published board update for AA6501 across the BNA and ORD boards: schedule changes, gate pushes and actual clocks. Early read: no clear pattern yet. Only 1 completed leg so far: left a little late (~9 min) but landed about 29 min early. Not enough to call it.
The verdict above is that record speaking, so it reflects how AA6501 operates rather than what the timetable promises. Numbers refresh as new flights operate.
