If you are flying straight and level and hit turbulence the aircraft the aircraft gets accelerated to say 2g for a few seconds.

If you are carrying out an aerobatic manoeuvre at say 4g and hit the same pocket of turbulence that had you at 2g straight and level, will you now be accelerated to 6g or 8g ?
