1. What is it like in the flightdeck? is there a blinding white light followed by chaos or do a few warning lights come on and the flightdeck are put into action to work through any warnings?
2. Whats it like from the cabin, again is it a bright flash followed by being pitched into darkness and mass passneger panic or what ???????????????
Been hit twice in a Nimrod. I was down the back at the time of the strike which hit the nose. It made a hole about 10" across on the radome, hit the radar scanner and travelled through the inside of the airframe. This appeared as a bright purple/blue'ish ring around the inner circumference of the cabin travelling rapidly from the front to rear of the aircraft, exiting via the MAD boom on the tail. It literally made our hair stand on end. Quite funny, no major damage apart from the nose and radar scanner.
