Hey everyone,

I was just out checking my flight status for tonight. My DTW-MSP leg is flight 512 which has an earlier leg MEX-DTW. That leg is a different AC too. Status right now:

MEX-DTW - Lv 4:30 Arr 9:54
DTW-MSP - LV 10:05 Arr 10:58

If leg 1 delays further, will leg 2 need to be delayed because of the potential to have 2 flights in the air, in the same airspace with the same flight number?
