I'd need to see what he was doing before... if the speed/altitude were changing wildly that's obviously a problem (and an indicator of severe turbulence potentially strong enough to cause structural damage) but if I saw that type of airplane was consistently at 36,000 ft and 350 knots I'd assume he had a crappy ~90 knot headwind and wouldn't think anything else of it.
