This brings back memories for me when I was travelling from Schiphol to Edinburg. It was very early morning winter and snowing heavily. There was a storm outside. About 10-15 mins before landing, the plane was hit by a lightning bolt! The plane shook, the lights dimmed, the oxygen masks were released and all the flight attendants rushed to their seats. It was like being in a Hollywood movie, except for real. After a minute or so things stabilised, you could see the relief of faces of all crew members. While walking out of the plane at Edinburgh, I heard one of the pilots ask the flight members "Did you see that? We were lucky!". The lightning had hit one of the wings of the plane and it was snowing heavily so it was even more difficult for the pilots to control the plane.
