I have no idea if this is old, but doesn't seem to faze the jet.
Lightning strike checklist:

That's lightning. Lightening is the descent of the uterus into the pelvic cavity.
I was on a Dash-8 that got hit a few years ago. I had just settled in with my eyes closed. I saw the flash right through my closed eyelids. Dropped both generators off-line (according to the captain when he finally had time to say something on the PA). I didn't see any external damage when I got off at PHL.
So you're saying it was the Captain's leg to fly and it interrupted your nap in the right seat? Tee hee. LOL. Kidding. Kidding. (Kinda.)
Look up eastern airlines (707??) struck by lightning over Elkton , Maryland some years back. Blew up killing everyone.
No, only if it burns all the paint off. Paint is heavy. Otherwise just keep on flying.When an aircraft is struck by "lightening" you need to have a new weight and balance done, right?
