Reply to comment by ubus99 in eli5 What would happen if I had a big enough airplane to throw a ball around then the airplane turns while the ball is in mid air? by the_lost_cheeto
Yes. From their "strapped in seat" the passenger will see the ball fall directly to the cabin floor, just with a lot more force than in level flight. From the passenger's perspective the ball will not move sideways.
