Or you run into bumps but only notice the one that you hit when you complete
the 360.
Yeah, sure.
The first time it happened to me was early in training when I was
very aware of every little bump or noise from the airplane.
As I was rolling out of the turn there was a ka-bump and my startled
reaction was a loud "What the hell was that?" which amused the
instuctor to no end.
Just because you have never experienced it and can't understand it
from your many hours of playing the Flight Simulator game doesn't
mean it doesn't exist.
It just means you don't know a whole lot about real flying or what
happens in a real airplane.
Have you ever done a short field take off in your Flight Simulator
Cessna with the springy gear and had the mains vibrate for a few
seconds shaking the airplane? It is disconserting as hell for a
low time student ready to chop power and abort take off at any
sign of a problem. Again, the instructor was amused.
