Anybody that completely unbuckles during a flight other than going to the toilet is taking a similar risk as driving without a seat belt. Loosen but do not unbuckle, period.

Good example of how the media sensationalise everything. The 6000ft drop was in mins and part of standard procedure. Wondered how long it would take for climate change to be raised 🤦🏻♂️ he shoots that down immediately by saying instances of turbulence are becoming less😂
I’ve taken that flight many times back in 1998-99 and I’d estimate on 50% of those flights we had that over the same airspace. We had to land a couple of times cos of passenger injuries including a stewardess with a broken leg. They always warn and ppl keep their belts on.

I can remember an incident when flying back to Skopje Airport. We were on a civilian, passenger aircraft, and on the way back from leave. We were thousands of feet up, and nothing could be seen below us when i looked out of the window. We suddenly hit bad turbulence, and the aircraft dropped dramatically. People flew out of their seats and hit their heads. Stewardesses flew in the air. I was lucky, I had my seat belt on. When I looked out of the window, I could see the sea below us. We had dropped thousands of feet in an instant. It was a strange feeling when the engines seemed to go silent as we dropped like a brick. Our was a definite drop and not a descent.

A long haul flight from UK to US helped. Also on the way back to the UK, it was a very late flight and snowing, and the pilot said "we'll likely experience around 5 hours of turbulence due to the cold and winds over the Atlantic". I got so bored of the turbulence and shaking it basically dissipated all my fear and I've been mostly okay since.

The deviation caused by the turbulence was about 400ft, followed by a controlled 6000ft descent to get out of the weather, so the overdramatised 'we know the plane dropped 6000ft' was intentional after the turbulence.

The plane didn't "drop" 6000 ft. The 6000 ft descent was a controlled descent to a new flight level as part of the flight path to Bangkok. This was after the turbulence event. It is important to do fact checking and not report false information. Will you post a video to apologise for providing false information?

What, the pilots who flew straight through an area of convective weather, when most other aircraft in the vicinity had been flying around it for the previous couple of hours? There was extensive weather in the area. The question is how they came to fly through it. Unfortunate decision? Improper monitoring? I’m assuming their weather radar was on (it would at least have to be functioning to have dispatched in the first place) but whether they were paying sufficient attention to it or not will need to be ascertained in the inevitable enquiry. I’d imagine they’ll say it was clear air turbulence, which is very difficult to avoid without reports from other aircraft or very accurate forecasting, but pretty much everyone else in the same airspace were dodging the tops of CBs. (Cumulonimbus clouds, which are large, convective clouds with a whole load of vertical energy.)
For god's sake, turbulence happens a lot on planes we have 1000s of flights everyday but RIP to the bloke
A freak weather event is the least likely scenario, surely? Experienced passenger flyers will tell you they are used to being warned that turbulence is coming and get themselves buckled up. Not saying it was totally impossible, but on that scale? . . . No warnings from the tech? No chance of pilot error? Seems unlikely to me?
