Pre-Flight
I was flying along in some relatively bumpy conditions today and saw a phenomenon I'd never seen before. I was flying "straight and level", but suddenly my airspeed shot up about 10 knots. My engine didn't suddenly get stronger and the RPMs were in the same place.
Is it possible that I hit an updraft, which caused me to climb, nosed over to compensate for it, and picked up airspeed in the process while not losing altitude?
