Glad the lightning didn’t damage the plane you were on. It must have freaked everyone out when it happened, especially the pilots.
I’ve seen videos of lightning striking planes and my hair stood up.
Like I said earlier, they do all they can to build planes to survive lightning strikes intact but nothing’s perfect. Everything has an Achilles Heel.
I'm more glad than you! On arrival I asked one of the pilots about it and he said it was a first for him, but it was not the first time for the other.
The standard advice for being caught in a lightning storm in an automobile is to stay in the automobile. If lightning strikes, normally the metal skin and body will carry the current harmlessly past anything in the car. But there is a cliche that lightning goes where it wants, and it has been known to punch through an otherwise insulating surface.
