wind-shear

Refers to da butt-hair-shaving action of da extra-strong INTERNAL "air currents" --- i.e., farts --- dat are experienced by aircraft pilots who are stomach-knottedly stressed by having to deal with extra-strong EXTERNAL air-currents --- i.e., sudden wind-gusts --- during takeoff and/or landing.

Refraining from da consumption of baked beans or cabbage before or during a flight can reduce da severity of wind-shear when piloting in blustery weather.
