How FR4978 actually runs

Pro Flight Search has tracked every published board update for FR4978 across the ATH and VNO boards: schedule changes, gate pushes and actual clocks. Early read: no clear pattern yet. Only 3 completed legs so far: departed +7 min. Not enough to call it.

The verdict above is that record speaking, so it reflects how FR4978 operates rather than what the timetable promises. Numbers refresh as new flights operate.
