Do you know WHY we have a turbulence penetration speed? Do you understand what it is for?
Killaroo, I suppose the reason for turbulence penetration speed, is the same as the reason I have a max. rudder input when flying a Piper 28 in turbulence?

Otherwise I would like to hear the reason :o) Just trying to learn a little more here ;o)

So killaroo I take it you never accelerate at night then
To my understanding the sun has a great deal of influence on turbulence? Not that it doesn't exist at night....
