Turbulence penetration - light vs heavy aircraft.

[Chris-AP263]

Just trying to get my head around some of the factors that influence the effects of turbulence on different aircraft.

For example, if asked the question which aircraft would you prefer to fly through a mature CB in -

1) Large transport aircraft (737...) DLL=2.5g
or
2) Light utility aircraft / aero (warrior etc) DLL=4.4g / 6g

Looking at the two aircraft side by side and faced with a large black towering CB I would be tempted to say the large aircraft, it certainly looks stronger! However in terms of g-loading it is not, it cannot withstand as much g before it breaks! There must be other factors such as effect of weight on g-increment, wing loading etc..

Any thoughts ?

Thanks
