How DL5679 actually runs

Pro Flight Search has tracked every published board update for DL5679 across the BOS and PIT boards: schedule changes, gate pushes and actual clocks. Early read — pattern not clear yet. Only 1 completed leg so far: left heavily delayed (~100 min) but landed a little late (~7 min). Not enough to call it.

The verdict above is that record speaking, so it reflects how DL5679 operates rather than what the timetable promises. Numbers refresh as new flights operate.
