Are Planes taking off in Thunderstorms normal?

What are you trying to say?
It amazes me that anyone would require "evidence" that thunderstorms and
aircraft don't mix.
I don't know of any aircraft that have flown into a tornado and been damaged
by it, but that doesn't mean that flying into a tornado is safe.
There was a very interesting article in the news a few years back
about Atlanta being shut down by thunderstorms, and how they'd ask for
a "volunteer" to try out a hole they thought they saw on radar. By
tradition, the first planes in line usually had to be the
"volunteer" ;-)
How long ago was this?
