  • Incredible variations in air speed BA2676 LGW-PFO

    I'm watching BA2676 (LGW-PFO) currently (8th April) and am logging variations of airspeed from 47kts at 1314UTC to 732kts at 1322UTC.

    Possibly a naive question, but, if you look at the speed and altitude log, there have been some massive variations in speed over the last 90 mins.

    Could there have been some major changes in wind / direction at FL350 that would have caused the autopilot or manual intervention to produce those results?

    Just asking!!

    No. The altitude and speed log is affected by numerous factors and should not be relied upon.
