| Jul 24, 2018 at 9:03 | comment | added | Daniele Procida | @Federico Since aircraft are equipped with both altimeters and airspeed indicators, this information must exist. I'm pretty sure pilots have an idea of the figures, for example. And clearly the information I'm after will not be available by looking at online trackers, which are a complete red herring here. I'm not interested in reconstructing information from some particular set of data, I'm asking about what a typical example might look like. | |
| Jul 24, 2018 at 8:00 | comment | added | Federico | If I have to assume "absolutely still air throughout a flight" the plot given by any online flight tracker answers your question. The problem in what you ask is that unless you are equipped in recording the wind conditions throughout a flight, you will never be able to reconstruct what you seek. | |
