why do we feel turbulence in an aircraft when going through clouds formed in the air, but not when walking through clouds formed at the surface?

You don’t have hundreds of m^2 surface area or travel at hundreds of miles an hour. The same air disturbance that feels like a breeze to a person is a strong force on a flying plane.
A better example would be swimming in an inlet to the ocean. You can feel the interacting water currents much more strongly than you can air at a human scale.
