    Default Air over gulf south partic louisiana is always rough

    I LIVE IN NOLA AND I TRAVEL ATLEAST 2 to 3 time a month The one thing I have noticed is the air i'n this area is partic ROUGH !!!! LAST NIGHT I WAS HEADING BACK FROM ATL TO NOLA AND THE PIOLOT BAISCLY SAID THAT THE FLIGHT WOULD BE BUMBY!!!! THATS AN UNDERSTATEMENT IT WAS BARABLE UNTIL WE GOT WITHIN 40 min of kmsy WE WOULD DROP AND I MEAN DROP I FELT THE PLANE FLEXING THEN WE WOULD GO BACK UP THEN DROP AND U GET THE POINT !!!!THE PIOLT CAME BACK ON AND SAID HOLD ON THERE WAS NOWHERE WE COULD GO TO GET AROUND THE HIGH STORMS SO WE FLEW BETWEEN 2 cloud masses I never get scared but last night I was!!!! SOMETIMES I WONDER IF THE PIOLTS FEEL THE TURBULANCE UPFRONT LIKE WE FEEL IT IN THE BACK!!!!

    It's usually much rougher in the back due to the tail whipping around.
