  • Nice that they are designed for that.

    That must have been a real eye opener for the pax. Bet they served a free round or two of booze afterwards.

  • Wow – that looked pretty frightening. I read some of the comments at the Glumbert site – not the brighest bulbs in the pack, that’s for sure. But someone did say that these jets are designed to absorb that kind of thing.

    Is that true?

    I hate it when that happens.

    Some nice German F-4s in the foreground. Oh… what is this lightning thing ya’ll are talking about?

    That looks like better than usual wx for Europe–not that the occasional clear and a million days don’t come stumbling by occasionally.

    They are indeed designed for that–though it is prudent to avoid, of course.

    I was flying a 747-400 that took a lightning strike on approach in Brazil last week. It required a write-up in the maintenance logbook which triggered an inspection procedure to make sure all was OK. It was.

    The aircraft is TUFF.
