This may be Delta's home, but AA owned this runway today.

Re: AAL1664 from start to finish
Notice the landing weight on the load sheet and the actual landing weight are pretty close to 2000 lbs different, accounting for my extra 2k lbs of fuel added anticipating a hold that I ended up not needing. The numbers are never going to be dead on for a variety of reasons, but they're what I call "close enoughfor government work".
In the end, I departed right on time and I was 13 minutes early to the gate
