Thanks for the information, but it looks like only limited data has been retained. This is hardly surprising as most of the time it is of no interest. Even so as you show there is useful information on the ground speed (derived from GPS position reports and time of reports). Considering the altitude the aircraft was at the ground speed would imply that the aircraft trajectory had a significant vertical component between those positions.

Imagine if you had the GPS altitudes and aircraft vector states as well
