Air Pocket and sudden scary drop during a left turn at 01:47 | Virgin Atlantic Dreamliner

Flight drops during a left turn and that moment when you feel you are falling from the sky and lifted off your seats. Was it an air pocket? Was it turbulence? Was it downdraft? or was it wake turbulence?

During our flight from New Delhi to London Heathrow, as we were descending and making a left turn, the flight suddenly dropped. Before or after this incident, there was no turbulence whatsoever. The flaperons dropped down and then lifted up and you can see the spoilers deployed after the drop. This seems like it was due to an air pocket. Quite a few people were scared and worried.

Listen to the sound of the engine during the scary drop. I don't know what happened there.
