How AS518 actually runs

Pro Flight Search has tracked every published board update for AS518 across the TPA and SAN boards: schedule changes, gate pushes and actual clocks. Early read: no clear pattern yet. Only 1 completed leg so far: left right on schedule but landed about 18 min early. Not enough to call it.

The verdict above is that record speaking, so it reflects how AS518 operates rather than what the timetable promises. Numbers refresh as new flights operate.
