Flying the 787 for last 4 years,I've seen a series of eight strike marks,,on the underside of the fuselage after one encounter.Also,a flaperon that opened up on the top rear surface with the texture of blackened cotton wool.
Certainly have a bit more respect for flying in their vicinity than I did whilst flying this 767,some years ago!
sorry,failed cut n paste
