Announcement was made by the Captain about our flight which we would to expect some turbulence especially along the way but no mention about the flight delay. Once we were on our way, we flew through a bit of turbulence but once the weather was better, the seat belt sign was turned off. Goodbye Frankfurt!

We took off with a few bumps here and there and more turbulence happening when we flew through the clouds during our climb. Some nice Indian music was being played before take off and landing, I thought that was nice, it somehow helps to calm one nerves especially when flying through turbulent weather. We entered the runway 25.

There was turbulence from time to time and the seatbelt sign came on a few times. Once we reached near the threshold, we waited for this China Eastern A330 to land before we depart. Once again, no announcements from the flight deck and the flight purser did the job. The Comac ARJ-21 does look like a DC-9.

Some gust fronts can be completely harmless or may be a precursor for an encounter with severe turbulence and dangerous low-level convective wind shear. These gust fronts often contain severe or extreme turbulence, strong and gusty straight-line winds, and low-level convective wind shear.

As the graphs obtained directly from the watches suggest, prior to any flight, there is a rise in the heart rate above the underlying “resting” threshold. And possible out of nowhere, we may encounter teeth-chattering clear air turbulence. A good pilot briefs himself about any-and-all emergency procedures.

I felt another flash of irritation when the Arrow stopped on the runway and dawdled for a while as we rapidly closed the distance with the runway threshold on short final. It was a typical turbulent, gusty, unpredictable Mackinac Island arrival.

A pair of synchronized flashing lights, located laterally on each corner of the runway approach threshold, providing rapid and positive identification of the approach end of a runway. Turbulence – Momentary, erratic changes in altitude or attitude. REIL – Runway End Identifier Lights. RON – Remain OverNight.

The International Air Transport Association (IATA) differentiates an accident from an incident by imposing a threshold of aircraft damage set at $1 million. During the landing, following an excessive pitch-up movement by the aircraft, its aft fuselage contacted the runway approximately 326 meters (1,070ft) beyond the runway threshold.

Somewhere over Pennsylvania a Cessna 208B Caravan with two pilots and the three passengers [was] going to a business meeting in the float-equipped airplane when they encountered clouds and turbulence. The pilot reported that he was too high and fast crossing the threshold 70 feet above ground level (AGL) at 90 mph. Not scared?

One of them informed us about the weather and possible thunderstorm at Delhi Airport and he mentioned about the smooth ride when they flew in from Delhi so we could be expecting smooth ride during cruising but possible turbulence when we approach Delhi. We reached the threshold of runway 27. So overall, this flight was smooth.
