Unpopular opinion: I thought air fryer wings were overhyped until my neighbor in Dayton showed me his 400 degree trick

I used to roll my eyes at anyone who claimed air fryer wings could beat a real fryer. Last Saturday my neighbor Marcus invited me over for the game and threw 2 pounds of wings in his air fryer at 400 degrees for 24 minutes, flipping them once at the 12 minute mark. He patted them dry with paper towels first and used a little baking powder with the salt, which I had never thought to do. The skin came out shatteringly crisp and the meat was still juicy, nothing like the soggy mess I made when I tried this 6 months ago. I went home and did the same thing Sunday with a simple buffalo sauce and my wife asked why I had been holding out on her. What temp and time do you all use for wings, because I think I finally found mine?
