Thanks for the link El Matador - I understand the recent shuttle disaster may have had some "mega lightning" problems, funny that mission had a scientist on board to study mega lightning, but It is not regular lightning in the cabin that I have read about - it is "ball lightning" this is not the same a regular lightning. Some claim it is a charged ball of energy and I have read reports that some airplane passengers have seen this float through the middle of an airplane cabin inflight. If so, why couldn't this charged ball of energy hit the inside of a fuel tank and make the plane go BOOM? google.com
