Thermic Lift

Long ago I flew Canberras in the tropics. However you define thermic lift, we got lots of it. However the effect was not lift but a lurch (or drop) in the indicated air speed.

That is for an aircraft which, at the end of a sortie as in the Blackbushe case, carried two thirds the wing loading of the Phenom 300.
