I do think turbulence has improved in 2024.
I can now leave it realistic for airliners and GA.
Take the Fenix: in 2020 you had to set turbulence to med or even low. At realistic the AC would toss around and AP disconnect immediately. Fenix measured the G-forces to 3Gs two times a second…or something like that.
In 2024 I have yet to have an AP disconnect, and the AC is tossed less around.
Especially the turbulence caused by the ultra-frequent-micro-gusts have been improved/less pronounced now. Although it still can be overdone in heavy airliners sometimes, imho.
I did have some nice in-cloud turbulence in the Fenix - stratus layer. But not sure if that was RealTurb (still tweaking settings there).
What 2024 (and 2020) really lack is severe turbulence in TCU, CBs. Took the C172 on storm chasing (live WX). No turbulence in storms/CBs. No violent up-/diwndrafts…give us a reason to avoid bad WX.
