As to producing enough 'turbulence' to cause an aircraft to crash...
"could not be ruled out" indeed! Presumably neither could the Bermuda Triangle or intervention by little green lizards.
What a fatuous weasel excuse!
Isn’t the wind that is powering the turbine just causing you to drift? If the turbine is into wind you would be blown towards it. Nothing to do with it pulling you towards it.
