Yes, there are several distributed data attempts currently. I know airbus is now rolling out the breaking report thing after it had a non-connected test run with several selected airlines. Check out https://safetyfirst.airbus.com/using...nated-runways/

I know several companies are in the process of developing mosaic weather radar pictures, basically real-time radar pictures from all airplanes in an area distributed to all airplanes to enable a better general weather picture. Which could even allow an airplane with inop radar to get a real time picture of the weather situation, kinda like herd immunity (sorry, couldn't resist).
