Aviation Turbulence on Indonesia and The Relationship to Himawari-8 Weather Satellite Imagery

Aviation turbulence is one of the dangerous events of a flight. This hazard impacts people and aircraft. One source of information on turbulence events comes from the NTSC report. Then one of the causes of flight turbulence is the presence of convective clouds. Indonesia, which is located in the tropics, is an area that is very active in its convective activities. Descriptive analysis was used in this study. There were three aviation turbulence events in 2016-2020, namely on 4 May 2016, 6 May 2016, and 24 October 2017. All incidents of aviation turbulence occurred wind shear around the incident location based on upper-air observation data. In two turbulence events, there are convective clouds around the scene.
