Hello. I have a flight from PHX to Denver coming up. I've flown a lot but seem to getting more anxiety about it as time goes on due to a lot of recently bumpy flights. For me the two biggest issues are the (1) dropping sensation and (2) the concern that somehow the turbulence or winds are going to make the pilot lose control of the aircraft, cause a stall, spin, etc.
Once I was on a flight that felt like it dropped 100ft or more. I'd love to know if that is common, or if it was likely 5 ft that felt like 100ft.
Also, how fast is the wind moving up in the sky, generally? Do the winds or turbulence make it difficult to keep control over the aircraft. Sure feels like it.
Trying to get this under control before an upcoming trip on a route that is known for being bumpy.
