This visualization simulates a split-flap departure board, displaying three rotating rows of city names with a yellow-on-black aesthetic. Each letter flips sequentially through the alphabet until it reaches its target, mimicking the mechanical clatter of a real airport display. The code uses D3 v4’s selection, data binding, queue, and timer APIs to manage letter transitions, while CSS 3D transforms and keyframe animations create the flip effect. An `animationiteration` event triggers the next letter change, and a shuffle process cycles through a hardcoded list of city names.
