Default Re: Mindre turbulens i nye fly ?

737 har det vel ikke installert, men 787 har teknologi som minsker turbulens ..

Now for probably the coolest new feature. If you hate flying through turbulence, as I do, Boeing have at least improved the situation rather than solved it completely. The worst bit of turbulence is when the plane drops several feet and gives everyone on board the sense they are falling. In order to counteract the effects of turbulence, Boeing is adding accelerometers to the nose of the plane. If they register a sudden drop, they tell the wing flaps to adjust very quickly (apparently in nanoseconds). In so doing, a 9 feet drop in an older plane can be reduced to just 3 feet in the 787, making for a much smoother flight.
