How WN3942 actually runs

Pro Flight Search has tracked every published board update for WN3942 across the SMF and MCI boards: schedule changes, gate pushes and actual clocks. Early read — pattern not clear yet. Only 2 completed legs so far: left heavily delayed (~83 min) but landed heavily delayed (~66 min). Not enough to call it.

The verdict above is that record speaking, so it reflects how WN3942 operates rather than what the timetable promises. Numbers refresh as new flights operate.
