@trdean1 One thing to pay more attention during the review of this branch is the change in calculating segment_rocd in the flight class. If air_temperature is available, then the segment_rocd estimate will be more accurate with a temperature correction (More important when used in aircraft performance models, probably not required when cleaning the Spire raw ADS-B data). If it is not available, then segment_rocd can still be used too. This might affect usage in other areas.

I will make some changes in pycontrails-bada too.
