Yes you are right CJ, gravity32 wants the specific aircraft calibration data.

He has said that Boeing will not supply him with this data.

My thinking is that Boeing must surely adhere to the published standards and if the aircraft was within spec then the standards would at least provide an indication of the possible calibration error margins.

Pitot static altimetry is error prone and one of the standards deal with how to estimate the associated error which may (or may not) assist gravity32.
