hi alljust doing a flight from ksfo to ksan and enroute i got these huge 50kt tailwind and the pmdg 737 started bobbing up and down for about 5 minutes, it really had the shakes, then after 5 minutes the wind changed direction and the plane calmed down, so my question is was turbulance i experienced?

Hey Dude, you realize you just came up with a new word: "turbulance"Here is my suggestion on what it may mean ;) :http://forums.avsim.net/user_files/149275.jpgA Turbo Ambulance :)BTW, Turbulence is defined as: A wild commotion b : irregular atmospheric motion especially when characterized by up-and-down currents c : departure in a fluid from a smooth flowSo I guess what you experienced must have been that. FS can simulate turbulence quite good! :)regards,Macs :)
