To me it feels like sitting in a chair that’s hurtling forward at 900 km/h and randomly rising and falling by a few meters. I’m not forgetting that for a second. It’s not that uncomfortable at cruise altitude, but I’m definitely very aware of what’s happening and how even tiny changes in pitch are tied to quite large and long acting G forces (compared to sitting in a chair, not to a rollercoaster).
