Thank you Paul for this kind gesture. What I am looking for are the
tabulated values of  these two graphs found in the Web (see attachment),
from which I presume that they are out of the U.S. Standard Atmosphere
Supplements. At the moment I am trying to get the values by tedious manual
interpolation.

Thank you for these links. There seem to be a lot of such data available.
Will have to see if I can find there also statistical averaged data sets.
