[QUOTE="harley128, post: 3674421, member: 615"] On the company jet making an approach into Memphis Intl. one stormy evening............. Pilot was trying to "thread the needle" thru the stormy clouds when all of a sudden we were hit by a bolt of lightning............. Temporarily blinded everyone for a few seconds and I saw it travel from the nose down the fuselage and exit the rear. When we landed we saw that it burned a small hole in the nose cap, and a small hole on the chrome ring of the rear jet engine as it left the plane. Pilots said they were certainly blinded as well, and noticed that a few of the instrument dials spun a couple of times. Other than than, just shook us up a bit. [/QUOTE]
