I just use a single k3s install on a single bare metal from Hetzner or OVH, works like charm, very clean deployments, much more stable than docker-compose and 1/10 of the cost of AWS or similar.

Thx for taking the time to write. We will look into it.

Those are all excellent questions and suggestions. I recommend discussing them with our customer support team.

Typically, flights do not deviate from their planned routes for non-severe turbulence levels. It's safer and simpler to have passengers remain seated with the seatbelt sign on. Our model considers weather inputs alongside real-time data, acknowledging that weather is continuously changing and somewhat unpredictable. Therefore, we don't perceive this issue as significant

Good question, turning on the seatbelt sign in this case is a good start.

What's the biz model ?

Yes, satellite internet is now standard on many Western airlines. In addition to this, we utilize weather data and real-time turbulence reports to predict Clear Air Turbulence (CAT) events across the entire sky, even where iPads are currently not on flights.

Thank you. We are actively working to onboard as many airlines as possible, and partnering with Delta would be highly beneficial. The more data we have, the safer and more efficient flights become.

Regarding the integration with Jeppesen, we would greatly appreciate hearing more about any issues you encounter and receiving your feedback

Our solution is compatible with Airbus, Boeing, or any other aircraft. It's important to note that connecting to the aircraft systems can be more expensive and add maintenance and complexity costs for the airline.

We have a partnership with Jeppesen, a Boeing company, for their Flight Deck Pro product. With this collaboration, users can access our data layer and predictions, and also report real-time turbulence within their app. While I'm not extensively familiar with the inner workings of ForeFlight, based on what I've heard, it relies on an external hardware solution, and its coverage and quality are not comparable

Five hours is a bit long; you can choose in the app how far ahead you would like to see. We typically recommend looking two hours ahead. This way, for the initial two hours, you'll have some data that may be partially outdated but still better than having no information at all.

More predictable routes and minimizing encounters with CAT can indeed help reduce fuel consumption while maintaining safety. This is a relatively small saving for each flight which can add up to a big chunk at the end of the year.

Some of the most severe injuries occur among crew members because they must rush to secure passengers in their seats, often being the last to fasten their own seat belts. Additionally, when turbulence reaches a certain intensity, the aircraft must undergo costly structural testing on the ground, which disrupts the airline's schedule significantly.

nice work! where is the data coming from?
