For #wingwednesday another UA 737 at an airport across an ocean that doesn't see any other US airlines: foggy Santiago–Rosalía de Castro Airport SCQ/LEST, Santiago de Compostela, Spain. There's an air traffic control tower on the left side hiding. I suspect it was an ILS Cat II/III landing. #avgeek

That June 2026 DOT Air Travel Consumer Report also contains the first month of SFO's runway construction and restrictions on parallel landings, with on-time performance almost 20% below the total across the top 30 and down over 20% from March 2026. Spoiler alert: on-time % got worse in May 2026.
