1. Gary and Dave in that same AR4 went south 1500 miles to Sydney instead of in the correct direction north(before turning east in Japan (I took the Reichen/Chip and Jon/Kelly route to return from Cairns 17 months ago).
2. The famous Alaska scene in AR1 when Joe/Bill were 24 hours behind the 2 leaders.
3. Lyn/Karlyn in AR10 could not get on the best plane first from Paris to New York and had to go via Newark maybe 90 minutes behind.
4. In AR6 Adam and Rebecca got to Chicago maybe 90 minutes behind the other 2 teams.
5. In AR7 Ron and Kelly nmade the single wrong turn near the San Juan International Airport and got to the Miami area about 90 minutes behind.
6. Ray and Yolanda were an unknown amount (but mabye an hour) behind at Red Rocks Amphitheatre.

Didn't Chip/Kim get a big lead heading into Dallas due to the (awesome) fog delay?

zachattack308, all AR5 finalists were on the same plane to Denver leaving Calgary. It was only at Denver that checking their bags actually prevented Colin/Christie and Nicole/Brandon from getting onto the United flight that Chip and Kim were on to DFW; they had to wait for the American Airliens departure. It was only 18 minutes out of DFW that Chip and Kim had over Colin and Christie and maybe 10 minutes more over Nicole and Brandon.
However, the question was what the relative position of the teams at the start of that leg in the Phillipines. It was about 30 minutes and bunched to 0 as soon as teams hit the airport. None of those time differences are "significant" in my judgment.

I have watched every single season, every single episode and still all of you folks make me feel like "The Amazing Race" Virgin with all of the knowledge that you can delve into at a moments notice.
I bow to your greatness.

Chateau d If:
And just for the record on Colin & Christie in Dallas, they have claimed that they more than made up for that 18 min (or whatever it was) flight difference by using a pre-arranged driver named "Earl". The ultimate piece of bad luck that brought them down was yet another flat tire in Dallas (unaired). Earl was fast and their completion of the maze task was fast.
