Falling down this rabbit hole, I found a meteorologist's blog describing a flight through Hurricane Hugo, where the aircraft experienced as much as 5g! A 90-kilogram life raft was torn from its moorings and slammed into the ceiling, leaving a dent. #HurricaneHugo #FlightExperience #ExtremeTurbulence #AviationSafety

During Melissa, the crew encountered turbulence of 3.8g — an acceleration 3.8 times greater than Earth's gravity. This exceeded the design limit of 3.0g, and the aircraft had to turn back. #HurricaneMelissa #ExtremeTurbulence #AircraftSafety #GForce #WeatherFlight
