I read about this. If you're not using the restroom, you should buckle in, whether or not the light is on.

I was in an F-27 that bumbled into a thunderhead near D/FW in Dec 78. It was like a roller-coaster without rails. That learned me.

The lone fatality has been identified as 73-year-old Geoff Kitchen, who died of a suspected heart attack.

And how will the press blame Boeing for this?

Do so every time I fly

Me too. I do mention to the pilot, when boarding a smaller plane, "I like turbulence!" Otherwise it's just a bus ride with bad food.

What's the line in the old comedy album? --
Stewardess: "We may have turbulence."
Passenger: "I'll have an onion."

Boeing hold all patents on turbulence, well known fact for people in the know.

And how will the press blame Boeing for this?

Here in Oz all we got was a big media splurge about climate change being responsible because these incidents will/may/could/might increase.

No one deemed it prudent to advise what I've seen here and in other threads on this site and that is wear your seatbelt.
