A method, device and system is provided for obtaining and processing turbulence data via communication devices located on-board airplanes. Turbulence data obtained by a plurality of communication devices may be received during flights on-board respective ones of a plurality of airplanes. Accumulated tempo-spatial turbulence information may be generated by super-positioning the turbulence data received from the plurality of communication devices onto a single tempo-spatial frame of reference. The accumulated tempo-spatial turbulence data information may be distributed to one or more of the communication devices. The plurality of communication devices may include one or more hand-held user communication device and/or embedded airplane communication device.
