Data are presented on loads and motions of a NASA F-106B airplane flying inside thunderstorms. No significant differences in piloting techniques were observed among the three pilots involved. It is indicated that airliners in normal operations occasionally encounter turbulence almost as severe as those encountered in these thunderstorm flights.
