Moderate turbulence

Turbulence that causes changes in altitude or attitude, but in which the aircraft remains in control at all times, and that usually causes variations in indicated airspeed (IAS) (this could be reported as "moderate turbulence"), or turbulence that causes rapid bumps or jolts without appreciable changes in aircraft altitude or attitude (this could be reported as "moderate chop").
