Where can I find historical flight data?

The two best sources for this type of data are FlightAware and Flight Stats. Although these sites both get data from the FAA, I don't know that either would be considered "official". The nearest to official source would be the FAA data available at https://transtats.bts.gov/ONTIME/.

Can you track Old flights?

Can you find out who was on a flight?

Only way somebody else can check your reservation is if that person knew your name, flight number and the reservation code. Even then, they would not know if you boarded the flight. No airline will give out the passenger list of a given flight.

Do flight times change with daylight savings?

On the night before the spring DST change, you will likely either leave an hour later or arrive an hour earlier.
