80-A night in January has been cold and clear. In the forenoon of the next day an airfield is in IMC due to fog which extends to a height of 700 ft. A heavily laden aircraft departs and, when breaking through the top of the fog, experiences temporary bumpiness and a sudden decrease in climb rate.
Mark the answer that states the most probable reason for the altered aircraft performance.

050 16751 Flight Hazards

The aircraft is under influence of a mountain breeze (descending air from the surrounding hills due to the incident sunshine). The aircraft suffers reduced lift and thrust due to a temperature inversion at the top of the fog. The additional weight gained by water which has been gathered on wings and fuselage during flight through the fog reduces the lift. The water which has been gathered during flight through the fog modifies the aerodynamic properties of the aircraft, thus reducing lift.

050 15071 Flight Hazards

While approaching the airfield in the late evening hours, without the pilot's intervention the engines of the aircraft are most likely to provide less thrust after breaking through the inversion layer. While approaching the airfield shortly before sunrise, the pilot has to consider turbulence because at first lift will be decreased due to katabatic winds and, after breaking through a valley inversion layer, lift is likely to improve due to anabatic wind While approaching the airfield in the early morning hours, these conditions apply for the possibility of a marked valley inversion which has to be considered as a potential flight hazard due to a decreased lift after breaking through the inversion layer. While approaching the airfield in the early morning, after a short period of bumpiness the engines of the aircraft will deliver more thrust after breaking through the inversion layer if the pilot does not intervene.
