On the news tonight there was a story about an Airbus that got zapped big time by lightning. They went on to say how lightning will just bounce along the aluminum skin of the airplane until it (the lightning) dissipates into the atmosphere.
So this is a three part question.
1) Will that still work on composite airliners and small airplanes?
2) Have you, in your GA aircraft, ever been zapped while in flight, and what were you flying?
3) was there any damage?
