So people stating turbulence can not cause a crash are wrong.

No sir, that flight travelled though a tornado and experienced g loadings of +6.8g to -3.2g.
The most severe turbulence should not see more than 2g.
There is no suggestion that the AF 330 went into a tornado, at least not at the moment.
BIG FAIL.
Go find the definition of severe and extreme turbulence then come back and retract this BS.
