How VA454 actually runs
Pro Flight Search has tracked every published board update for VA454 across the DRW and BNE boards: schedule changes, gate pushes and actual clocks. Early read — pattern not clear yet. Only 3 completed legs so far: left heavily delayed (~57 min) but landed noticeably late (~21 min). Not enough to call it.
The verdict above is that record speaking, so it reflects how VA454 operates rather than what the timetable promises. Numbers refresh as new flights operate.
