Is this being updated w/ real life flight times? E.g. assume a flight plan w/ 10 legs. After 5 legs, assume you're ahead/behind of time and you have more/less FoB than initially estimated. Will this be taken into consideration for the coming remaining 5 legs, or not?

The ETAs at your waypoints still to come are calculated on the fly based on whether you're going faster or slower than you planned to go.
