On the right you can see a slightly cleaned version of the plot you generated in the previous exercise. Which of the following is a reasonable conclusion to draw from this plot?

Before drawing any conclusions, be sure to familiarize yourself with the different axis scales produced by plot.zoo(). For example, diverted flights are generally on a much smaller scale (0 - 0.4%) than delayed flights (0 - 30%).
