1 Introduction Turbulence is estimated to cost the aviation industry around US$200 million annually in the USA alone (Eichenbaum, 2003). These costs arise partly from additional airframe fatigue, requiring maintenance and subsequent loss of productivity, as well as occasional airframe damage. Additionally, passengers and crew suffer injuries, some requiring costly hospital treatment.
