It was mostly uneventful, but as we were preparing to land the aircraft banked hard to the left and began to experience something akin to this...like it hit a sudden pocket of turbulence at the apex of the turn and began to pogo around.
It was minor and far from inducing damage to the vehicle, but in that moment remembered where I was while clenching my body for a few nervous seconds until we eased out of the turn.
The other parts of the descent were smooth until specifically hitting its maximum bank, then it suddenly got squirrelly and then stopped as the plane began to flatten. It's as if the degree of bank was beyond the plane's limits.
I've flown hundreds of times and can't recall ever experiencing something quite like this.
EDIT: I just realized my original comment was written incorrectly. The plane didn't expectedly bank, it's that this started happening at the top of a hard bank.
I wonder if this could have been wind shear? Wind shear was deemed as the cause of the crash for Delta 191[0] on approach to DFW in the 1985. Lots of new equipment was installed after to detect wind shear. I wonder of MEX has that kind of equipment.

There were no weather issues no other incidents of turbulence or jostling around. It seemed as if the plane was having problems banking at that angle.
It produces a strong rolling motion and can even flip small airplanes.
What happened to passengers (are they usually injured from things falling/flying around)?
Boeing is getting some bad news these days, but multiple whistle-blowers in a row is the worst.
