I'm assuming that the most valuable data for predicting turbulence during a flight is timely data from the accelerometers of the iPads on nearby airliners, which gets me curious as to whether these iPads usually have connectivity (to your AWS servers) during a flight, and how that connectivity is provided. (I'm guessing satellite.)
