How SV38 actually runs

Pro Flight Search has tracked every published board update for SV38 across the IAD and RUH boards: schedule changes, gate pushes and actual clocks. Early read — pattern not clear yet. Only 3 completed legs so far: departed +11 min. Not enough to call it.

The verdict above is that record speaking, so it reflects how SV38 operates rather than what the timetable promises. Numbers refresh as new flights operate.
