Violent wind changes?

Featured Replies

Hello, 

Asking those with working live weather. Do you too suffer from violent changes of wind direction and speeds? 

I was just cruising over the alps and the TBM almost flipped upside down as the wind changed from around 25 knots to about 90 knots in the blink of an eye. This happens to me quite frequently and makes flying quite uncomfortable. 

Any opinions? 

Best regards

225 at 3 have no V issues.  Lol.

The most violent wind change I have seen was when the wind went from 3 knots to 4. Tighten that harness!

I know what you mean. It seems as you move from weather zone to zone, the nose shakes around violently for a second.  Is that what you mean? Otherwise, like the others I have 225 at 3. 

Just flew KSAN to KSFO,225@3.....
