✈️ Turbulence looks scary. The truth is much calmer.
Most people don’t fear flying, they fear not understanding what’s happening.
Those bumps you feel? They’re caused by things pilots expect every day: wind, thermals, jet streams, even air left behind by other aircraft.
What matters most: Modern aircraft are built to flex and tested far beyond anything you’ll experience • Severe turbulence is extremely rare • The vast majority of injuries happen when people aren’t wearing their seatbelt
Between 2009 and 2021, there were only 5–18 serious turbulence injuries per year — among millions of flights.
What feels dramatic in the cabin is usually routine on the flight deck.
💬 Question for you: When turbulence hits, what worries you most? the noise, the sudden drop feeling, or not knowing what’s happening?
I’ll explain it, calmly ✈️💙
