Before you come here and start trolling I suggest:

1. Learn how to read
2. Learn how to understand what you are reading and then, may be, you will be able to grasp what this thread is about.
3. Study aviation language / METAR code and, may be, you will learn the difference between Cu and CB

I will try to explain to you what capt bloggs communicated quite clearly:
If you fly thru the same pocket of turbulence (Cu for example) at 320 knots, you will experience much stronger turbulence than doing so at 250 knots.
That is a common fact. Most professional pilots are in agreement about it as you mentioned.

Now the purpose of this thread is to discuss if G-loads decrease linear to the airspeed or not. Nothing else.
It is not about reducing your Mach from 0.82 to 0.80.
At FL250, for example,you can maintain 320 KIAS or slow down to 250 KIAS.

It is clear that you cant contribute anything to this topic so please stop trolling.
