Density Functional Stock Forecasting tool can be used to predict and control Turbulence in Airplanes....!

If you measure the altitude and speed in the x direction ( forwards and backwards) speed in the y direction(up and down) and speed in the z direction(sideways) and acceleration in x,y,z and engine thrust of an aircraft, these 8 dimensions measured microsecond by microsecond, can be forecast together with the Accumulation (Price-Volume Integrated Action algorithm) to forecast turbulence in an airplane, and predict what altitude and speed lie ahead, even up to 45 minutes ahead. It can give 99 percent confidence intervals, and alert the pilot to when the fututre will be outside the bounds of safe parameters! This can be a very useful tool in aircraft to adapt and alter their flight control and path to minimize turbulence and adjust it in an optimal manner so as to minimize its effects. It won't be perfect, it never will, but it might be the best tool we have so far for adapting to and minimizing flight turbulence in real time! This really could save lives and make flights more comfortable and safe for pilots and passengers! This can be used to provide a forecast to Pilots, or be used by an AutoPilot in a feedback loop! The Miitary, SpaceX , Blue Origin and Virgin Space and Boeing might be interested!

Interesting way of doing it. Did you base the input probabilities on actual data from aircraft?
Does this cut down processing power? I note that NCAR are using a supercomputer in their trial to provide pilots with advice.

45 minutes = 450 miles, The average distance between warm and cold fronts in central England is about 100 miles. I can't think of any parameter of air movement ahead of a warm front that predicts where the cold front (the usual cause of heavy turbulence at low to medium altitude) will be, or how intense.
