I started a thread about this but no one cared.

Intercontinental AC is only partially loaded at 355 though. Using YYC-FRA as an example, at 355 the flight shows I1X1, at 354 the flight goes to I2X9. If the flight at 355 showed I0X1 then I knew the next day was going to go I1X9.

Go ahead and try it on expert flyer yourself
