hi

my dad was on this flight yesterday, not spoken so decided to seek confirmation
had landed.

theres 2 sharp drops in height.

the second looks a bit much 35000 feet down to 7500 and back up in couple of minutes?

I guess it's a bit like when you go over a bump and your speedometer stops working for a few seconds. Loss of data from GPS ?

As above, I'd say? Speed remains pretty constant, and for an altitude drop of that magnitude in such a short time I'd have guessed the speed would've massively increased?

More importantly, there's been nothing in the news

Have you heard from them yet?

Cheers was thinking hoping error. 28 000 feet in a minute would be like free fall I guess. Was too late to ring last night will ring today.

i make that just over 315 mph, thats faster than freefall, somone would have noticed I'm sure

Mrs spoke to them no mention of roller coaster plus ride so guess bad data after all.
