I am pretty sure that is what happens Wednesday in my trip back from Portland about 5:15pm. I felt the roller coaster feeling on my belly. I ski dive so it didn’t got me by surprise. I was imaging other people on my side that scream a little bit (10 seconds). Yep. Thank you first responder and the airport staff that receive messages in the tower . God Bless you all. The weather is terrible a lot turbulence too.
