"I don't see how find the track of the plane if I know the altitude LKP and the time to impact and the
heading at impact ...

With these 3 data only .. the equation cannot be solved
There are many more unknowns"..............

It has been a while, but you get the gold.

You have just described my frustration at the "conclusions" bright people have made re: this crash. Because of a subtle misuse of a common phrase, for two years smart guys have entertained the thought that AF447 always had control. They will tell you not so, but clearly, this "Heading at Impact" drivel is the result of BEA's use of "En Ligne de Vol". Words have meaning, and always be sceptical when reading prose by folks are get paid to write.
