natatakot ba kayo pagnakakaramdam ng turbulence?

[freeswan]

^ d ko narinig yun sis pero kahit naka autopilot ang plane, takot pa rin kaya sila pag may turbulence?

[Bag_Snob]

^  I think even the "autopilot" could fail if the computers / speed sensors malfunctioned just like what happened to Air France 447.

[purpleish]

nung bata 2x pa ako...ayos lang...pero nitong may pamilya na ako, natatakot ako kasi hindi naten masabi ang pwedeng mangyari...liit pa daughter ko

[babyjapnurse01]

oh yes takot! nakakapraning kaya.. like when we left for HK, the weather was kinda cloudy sa HK kaya medyo turbulent yung ride when we were about to land na...

jusko, was watching final destination pa naman that same morning when mom and i are about t0 leave manila na.. hahahah!

[lclanzaderas]

hindi naman. so far. 

[prish]

i'm sure after reading all the comments here ayaw na rin ni prish mamatay sa plane crash!

LOL! bigla akong natakot ha! itong thread ang reason kung bakit takot na ako sa turbulence!

[Cherniguin]

^ay don't worry about turbulence, Prish. =) Just make sure your belt is on and when the seatbelt sign is switched on, be obedient, don't walk around or walk to the toilet.

Actually the most crucial phases of the flight are the take-offs and landings.  Auto-pilot is switched on pag-cruising na.  And turbulence, I don't think, scares pilots.  I am confident, they are not. Because:  A) before the flight they'd study the route and what-have-you na B) they will be briefed about the weather before they are allowed to taxi for take-off C) the communication between them and control towers is on-going thru out the flight--weather, air-traffic, etc  D) before the start of boarding and before or during refueling the aircraft is thoroughly checked by engineers and the operating pilots themselves E)  most of them have been through flight simulators and have faced all sorts of scenarios na.

tulad sa iba sa inyo, marami na din akong travels. there was a time na, bale wala lang sa akin yung turbulence. Tipong lubak lang yan sa kalsada! parang ganun ba. I had this attitude until nakaranas ako ng isang pangyayari, na ayaw ko nang maulit.

Pauwi ako ng Pinas, galing North America, hindi ko maalala kung Canada or US, basta nandun kami sa part ng flight na, naka upo lang talaga kaming lahat (natutulog or nanonood ng movie), walang naglalakad, walang kumakain. ewan ko lang kung may nasa CR.

naging turbulent. nagflash ang seatbelt sign. naging matalas yung shaking ng eroplano. medyo masakit sa ulo at katawan.

then....

the plane dropped sharply!!!

medyo malalim yung ihinulog kasi feel ko i was thrown out of my chair. i really felt i was off the chair because i felt air flow beneath my butt and behind my back and it took a second or two bago ako nabalik sa aking upuan. I was held by the seat belt. the force was so sharp na sumakit yung bewang ko dahil sa seat belt. sumakit din yung ulo ko dahil sharp ang pagkahulog at naumpog ang ulo ko sa seat. syempre, nagsigawan yung mga tao na kala mo nasa roller coaster. but the sensation was far from a rollercoaster's wild turn or drop. we had to endure 2 more sharp drops. halos sunod sunod yung tatlong drops. but the last two were not as deep as the first one. but they were sharp kasi feel mo yung utak mo eh nag squish sa cranium.

since then, tuwing nagkakaturbulence, nagwiwish lang ako na hindi na maulit eto kasi ang panget talaga ng feeling.

[freeswan]

^ bro, grabeh..yung ang pinaka ayaw ko talaga. i know how you felt when you said na sumakit yung bewang mo. kaya ako minsa my seatbelt is a it loose.

[akthung]

actually sis loose yung seatbelt. ganun ka sharp at kalalim yung ihinulog namin.

once ko lang naranasan yun.

[Cherniguin]

Air pockets. Maski loose or tight ang seatbelts, it won't matter, masakit talaga (iba sa neck, esp those with weak necks and spinal, naku!), buti walang other accidents on top of it like  overhead compartments nag-open, etc.

We just have to trust our faith sometimes...leave it all to Him.

ayy ayoko din maexperience to! mabilis pa naman ako malula, yung maliit na airpockets nga lang feeling ko nalalaglag na yung bituka ko eh.. what more yung ganito.. waaa...

[beautifuldreamer]

turbulance...

nakakanerbyos talaga...no matter how many times i fly...

dahil loose yung seat belt, i was off my seat for a second o two. medyo sumakit din internal organs ko sa lower torso.

[prish]

^what if may baby or toddlers sa flight? it could cause shaken baby syndrome which causes brain damage..

[freeswan]

^ what my cousin does when she has her baby on board, an hour before the flight pinapatulog niya si baby (yung gamot for the sipon), not that harmful naman kasi yun ang instruction ng pedia. so throughout the flight, sleep si baby (local destinations lang 'to ha). then pagkalapag sa airport, gigisingin na si baby.

[prish]

^pero kung ganun kagrabe ang turbulence like kay akthung, ano nangyari sa mga babies or toddlers? (kung meron man) i was just thinking about SBS (shaken baby syndrome)..

[sheric_manzon]

yup, medyo praning ako pagsakay ng airplane. siguro dahil na din sa experience ko nung 1st time ko sumakay na inabutan ako sa loob ng CR and too bad nagluko yung door at ayaw nya mag open so to the rescue ang mga flight attendants para makalabas ako.

[marieb777]

yap, scary talaga with all the shaking and the noise!
Rough landing na exprience ko na rin yun!!

[kkkaattt]

yes. seriously, napapa-dasal talaga ko.
