Understanding turbulence can be key to a smooth flight. Both pilots had heard stories of smaller aircraft being upset by wake turbulence from the massive A380s. Turbulence intensity table. Intensity is somewhat subjective to the aircraft and pilot, but pilots are encouraged to report any turbulence they encounter.

Allowing the altitude to sort itself out was the most practical approach with dealing with the wave and associated turbulence. Once on the north side of the Appalachians, the mountain wave and turbulence subsided making the flight into London (CYXU) quite enjoyable. A short hour later I was putting the Commander back into the hangar.

Navy had equipped both the USS Akron and Macon airships with a hangar deck and trapezes to carry and launch Curtiss F9C Sparrowhawk fighter planes. The interrelated aerodynamic effects caused by flying the short-coupled XF-85 under the turbulence-inducing B-29 was just too much for even a “Golden Glove” test pilot.

If your flight needs to get out early in the morning, the airplane should be hangared overnight and pulled out just before departure. Don’t assume that because a particular FBO is at a large airport that they will have hangar space, engine pre-heat or other cold-weather service instantly available to you.

If the descent is conducted in turbulent conditions, the pilot must also comply with the design maneuvering speed (VA) limitations. As mentioned above, turbulence and type of emergency (such as a fire) can and will dictate the speeds and configuration to use.

At one point, we entered a region of sufficient turbulence that I disengaged the autopilot to hand-fly. I initiated the missed approach procedure and watched the hangar buildings disappear back into mist as we climbed upward into the clouds. We spent some time in instrument meteorological conditions over Vermont. I asked him teasingly.

It was a fun hangar-flying session, right up until one of the local instructors got serious for a moment. The pilot wrote that there was a rough air and a possible wake turbulence encounter. This article first appeared in the Aviation Safety Magazine. The alleged violations were mostly for airspace incursions.

We taxied to the whole other end of the airport to the FBO Hangar Q60 which served avgas. We started the game to deviate to the left and the right but after a while nature was winning from us: we could not avoid anymore getting into the clouds which potentially carried ice, turbulence or worse. ATC assigned runway 18 and landed.

The bad weather continued to plague them and the crew were concerned about the lightning, icing and turbulence associated with thunderstorms. In the heart of the storm, excessive wind and turbulence could have stressed the aircraft and caused structural damage. In the cockpit were three flight crew: two pilots and a flight engineer.
