Turbulence - Stock-Fotografie

Flying at cruising altitude over Sumatra, Indonesia. The Garuda pilot has just skirted a very large thunderhead cloud and we finally break into clearer, less turbulent skies. Pilots often deviate from their flight plan course when confronted with bad weather, particularly thunderhead cumulo-nimbus clouds which can reach great heights during the monsoonal season. The view shows an amazing myriad of layered clouds ahead in this active equatorial weather system.
