No malice in that statement. Since I found this site I often find bloomers like this. I came to the conclusion that the machines you use are so automated that you forget the basics.

Is it not perfectly obvious that if you slow the velocity the effects of the turbulance will be less? And that the heavier the mass of the 'plane the less the effect.

This is interesting

Don't take this personal...show me another airframe that is stronger than the 787....per metric tonne. Maybe the B748..?

So many variables here though..don't you agree.?

P.S. I see our colleague "forget" was off line when I posted this, if turns up on this thread please be aware of the current situation between me and him .. not good. Regards
