I belive this is OPs flight if anyone wants to compare plane data with ADS-B one. https://www.flightaware.com/live/flight/SWA2340/history/20230924/2030Z/KSTL/K

- schoen 3y agoConceivably, the ADS-B data source might be the same as the data source for this API, at least in that they might be calculated from the same instruments and flight systems.
- fer 3y agoPotentially, but altitude and speed data on ADS-B are constrained to just 11 bits (+ 1 bit dedicated to the resolution: 25 vs 100-feet increments). So while I believe the data source is the same, one can see quantization artifacts when comparing both signals.
- jamesbvaughan 3y agoThat is the flight. This is a cool idea - I wish I had thought of it!
