Keyser, would there be a significant difference in amount of fog between 00:55 and 2:25 AM? Enough that the 00:55 flight is usually on time, but the 2:25 flight is often delayed?
in my experience the fog seems to be at its worst between 3am-7am so it is possible that the 2:25am flight could be hit by fog while the 00:55am flight would not be....but still, there should not be such a vast difference in on time percentage....
