oh yea, great pic, my uncle is a dc-9 driver for northwest and he says they get hit all the time. one time they got hit, and it melted the rivets on the top of the fuselage. i bet that makes for a good ride

been hit by lightening, was marginally cool. I've heard of much better strikes than I got, with actualy lightening or some kind of discharge down the tube - that'd be cool. Oh wait, no it wouldn't! Cool pics man.

It's called St. Elmo' fire, and no thanks.
