Default Lightning eats SSA Excom Minutes


somewhere, in some safety bulletin somewhere, or maybe in the soaring
magazine, is a truly FRIGHTENING account by Ken Sorenson when his plane
(while flying) was struck by lightening.....glass and carbon, but you
would be amazed. Ken was flying in a contest at Moriarty when it
happened. He was able to land safely, after the cockpit exploded from
the pressure wave....

I don't think anyone wants to "experiment" like that!
