HGR delay-share reading

The standout signal at Hagerstown, MD is on-time standing: 69.2% (9.8 pts below the 79% national flight-weighted average; roughly the bottom-quartile on-time performance) across 2,806 BTS flights (2020–2025). When a departure runs late, the average delay is 78.7 minutes; cancellations run 1.53%.

Delay minutes concentrate in Late Aircraft (48.2% late-aircraft, 28.4% carrier, 15.9% NAS, 7.1% weather, 0.4% security). As a quieter airport, a single late inbound can swing the month more than at a mega-hub.
