fireflybob's query....

I seem to recall a USAF Lockheed C-141 crashed on approach to Mildenhall,Suffolk UK after being struck by lightning................That's a big airlifter to be bought down by a bolt of lightning.

Don't know if the lightning strike resulted in a complete electrical failure which subsequently caused the crash......Anyone?
