Where in a plane do passengers feel turbulence the least?
While air turbulence is certainly not pleasant, especially for those with a fear of flying or a delicate stomach, not every part of a plane shakes as strongly.
– In essence, you feel the least movement in the middle of the plane – explains Professor Andreas Strohmayer of the University of Stuttgart.
The aircraft shakes the least at the point where the wings meet the fuselage.
Also, passengers seated near the middle of the plane do not seem to feel the swerving as much. By contrast, the least static part of the aircraft tends to be the rear.
When the pilot operates the vertical stabilizers or rudder, an occupant at the very back may feel pulled out of line. In turbulence, they may feel more whipped about.
A seat at the back is likewise less than ideal during takeoff.
– When the aircraft lifts its nose as it leaves the tarmac, those at the back will feel as if they are dropping in an elevator – says Strohmayer.
