Discovering IndiGo Airbus A321neo Part 1: New Delhi To Mumbai

Charles Ryan's Flying Adventure

Anyway we were informed about the turbulence and for this flight, the first officer did the announcements. Almost there now, we had to wait for an arrival before given the clearance to depart. As you can see, it was raining at this point but nothing bad in terms of turbulence. I declined as I prefer the window seat.

More air molecules in engine cylinders allow the engine to produce more power; more air molecules moving across the propellor blades and wings means more efficient thrust and lift. Bad data caused by turbulence, turns, and other anomalies was discarded. As altitude increases, air molecules spread out, resulting in less power and lift.

Leaving South America On Board Delta Airlines Boeing 767-400ER

Charles Ryan's Flying Adventure

We waited for another 10 minutes before finally given the clearance to board the aircraft, I wonder what was the cause of the delay. As this was the first time sitting quite front in the Boeing 767-400ER, I find it to be quite noisy during take off and there was quite a bit of turbulence during the flight. Welcome back to the U.S!

Unfortunately, they had miscalculated, and no amount of brake action and thrust reversers could keep the jet from plowing into the snow at the end of the runway. Some approaches even require specialized pilot training to receive clearance. Those are solid signs of windshear and turbulence downwind of the ridge crest or mountain peak.

Additionally, only those events where aircraft have been reported as either substantially damaged or written off, or there has been a fatality onboard a public transport flight due to inflight turbulence, have been included.

This configuration provides the necessary power for both climb and cruise, while also offering valuable training for managing asymmetric thrust in the event of an engine-out situation. Wind shear, turbulence, or gusty winds can create challenges during the landing phase, so knowing how to adjust for these factors is critical.
