Are you talking about the Ellrod index? El value of 15 would probably break an aircraft apart! But I can't be sure, my fluid dynamics exam pwned me last week sad

Also,

It’s all but impossible for turbulence to cause a crash


I read this on another website a while ago and was speaking to my Uncle about it, he's a commercial pilot instructor and does international long haul routes. He mentioned that's the most careless comment for a pilot to make. Firstly, turbulance can and has definitely caused airplane crashes. Turbulance, particularly clear-air turbulance, injures hundreds of people a year. If you walk around inside a plane of sit in a seat without a belt on, you are still hurtling though the air at just under the speed of sound and if the plane hits a wind shear and experiences rapid acceleration, you are going to hit the roof/wall/floor very very hard. And that's not just 'uncomfortable'.
