Default How long could an air bubble last in coolant system?

I manually flushed my coolant a month ago without any sort of vacuum. I've routinely checked my coolant levels over the last month and everything's been fine. I got a GIAC chip yesterday and have been driving the **** out of the car today. I noticed my coolant level dropped considerably. Could an air bubble have lasted in the system for that long? I hope to god it's not any sort of coolant leak into the engine that some people have experienced. I'll be doing a Blackstone Analysis in the next 1000 miles to be 100% sure but need some piece of mind 'til then

If you didn't purposely burp your coolant system after the flush, it could very well have been air
