Filter (e.g., distance < X, altitude < Y) about fr24_card HOT 3 OPEN

I'm not sure yet how to implement it, but I'm thinking about something like this for the config:

type: custom:fr24-card
entity: sensor.fr24_aircraft
filter:
    type: or # and, or
    rules:
        - distance: <10
        - altitude: >=5

This will work with both options for units configuration parameter (default and metric) and can be applied after the units are converted (if metric is used).

The syntax for the rules should support the operators >, <, >=, <= and =. It should work on columns that have a number as their value. But not all; based on the above syntax, filtering on track would not be of any value. Therefore I am thinking of supporting the following columns in the filter: altitude, distance, speed.

Maybe in the future also a filter on columns with a text value. For example country.

I've been looking for a solution to logging aircraft noise and being able to count aircraft within a set distance and below a set height would be great. It could also be refined further by aircraft type, speed/acceleration/etc. Is this possible?

@robsymax I think that's beyond the scope of this card. This card is for showing the current tracked aircrafts. It won't store any data. Theoretically this is possible by calling HA's API and updating an entity, but I won't develop that. You can always fork this repo and open a PR if you have developed such functionality.
