How WN3121 actually runs

Pro Flight Search has tracked every published board update for WN3121 across the MSY and BNA boards: schedule changes, gate pushes and actual clocks. Early read: no clear pattern yet. Only 3 completed legs so far: left noticeably late (~33 min) but landed a little late (~13 min). Not enough to call it.

The verdict above is that record speaking, so it reflects how WN3121 operates rather than what the timetable promises. Numbers refresh as new flights operate.
