Original Note:
The headline is incorrect and misleading. There was not a change in gravitational force. The force of gravity by the Earth is constant (at least in context of aircraft altitudes) and did not suddenly change. The Aerodynamic force on the aircraft changed due to air turbulence. https://www.grc.nasa.gov/WWW/K-12/Enginesim/weight_and_mass.htm https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cd114v0erlno
