Most people I've told this to think I am pretty strange.
As a child we went everywhere by ferry so 7-8 hr crossings in all weathers was the norm for us, I wouldnt say I love turbulence unless there is a good storm below to watch, everyone is pretty amazed it doesnt bother me, I was "grounded" by a 20 year fear of flying ,my fear was of not being able to breathe on a plane, nothing to do with turbulence or crashing so I am a lot better than the rest of the family in rough weather
