This is quite common in USA nowadays, also in Europe the amount of PIREP is growing. Sometimes, PIREP are also used to publish turb SIGMET. Such warnings are important. What does the community think if such turb PIREP also could be filed via SD, inflight? If such PIREPS would be shown in SD on the map to everybody to raise awareness? SD could also be used using motion sensors to measure turbulence intensity. A little dialogue could be implemented to send a report. https://www.skybrary.aero/index.php/Pilot_Report_(PIREP) Best wishes, Alex
