From: In the boot of my car!
I was flying a private jet over the alps coming out of Nice with severe turbulence forecast between FL 200 and Fl300 hitting the turbulence which was severe
I requested and immediate climb to Fl340.
Normally the Citation mid twenties is climbing at 1000 fpm.
I went from FL240 to FL320 at 3000 fpm.
Ie 2000 fpm from the air currents.

Convert that to level flight on a glider and you would easily break VNE in level flight who needs descent to do so ?
So back off topic again
