Heard on frequency during some nasty weather, a beech 18 night freight pilot offered a report about his current situation…
ATC: Copy. Care to offer a PIREP?
Beech: Sure. At 12,000, we’ve got lightning … cloud-to-cloud, cloud-to-ground … so far, negative cloud-to-airplane-to-ground…
Short Final…
Key Takeaways:
- A Beech 18 night freight pilot reported severe lightning activity (cloud-to-cloud and cloud-to-ground) at 12,000 feet during nasty weather.
- The pilot humorously reassured ATC that, so far, the lightning had not struck his airplane.
