How TK1997 actually runs

Pro Flight Search has tracked every published board update for TK1997 across the IST and LGW 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 12 min early. Not enough to call it.

The verdict above is that record speaking, so it reflects how TK1997 operates rather than what the timetable promises. Numbers refresh as new flights operate.
