@ Above the clouds of joy: the plane was struck by lightning video, introduce: that no one on the plane today, of course, even if someone is or was injured by lightning strikes, because the metal shell of the aircraft itself was a "Faraday cage". Video light is conductive tires into the ground, and may cause damage to the aircraft communication and navigation electronics systems. Other people will have to pay attention to safety on the ramp, which is why thunderstorm delays, were aimed at security, without fear of flying.

@FATIII: this is why, when thunderstorms ramp workers to stop work and enter the room to escape, if someone was on the ramp at this time, may well be hit. Aircraft design protects internal personnel, the largest number of people in the plane were startled, but not so fun at the aerodrome.

@ Aviation story: scared to death. But like airplanes and cars, the appearance can conduct electricity, so current does not damage the internal personnel, but the aircraft to ground can be dangerous. Lightning the rainy season, safety first.

揭阳机场一飞机遭雷击，火花四溅 - 飞机雷击 - IT资讯

IT资讯讯 5月30日消息，据媒体报道，今日下午3时04分，停放揭阳潮汕国际机场停机坪的一辆飞机遭雷击，现场火花四溅，幸无人员伤亡。

据机场工作人员透漏，涉事飞机是一辆南航的客机，事发时已完成当天的飞行任务，故飞机上并无旅客和机组人员，雷击也未造成任何人员伤亡。

雷雨过后，机务人员对飞机进行了初步检查，发现在飞机轮胎部位有疑似雷击痕迹。经机务专家仔细检查确认飞机并未遭受任何损失。但为保险起见，航空公司仍然对飞机轮胎进行了更换。同时为确保万无一失，飞机仍被拖至机库作进一步全面检查。

@欢乐的云端之上：都在传这个飞机被雷击的视频，介绍一下：今天这飞机上没人，当然即使有人，也不会被雷击伤，因为金属壳体的飞机本身是个“法拉第笼”。视频的火光就是轮胎导电入地产生，可能导致飞机通讯和导航电子系统损坏。另外机坪上的人就要注意安全了，这也是雷雨天延误的原因，都是为了安全，无需恐飞。

@FATIII：这就是为什么，雷雨天气的时候机坪人员要停止作业并进入室内躲避，如果这个时候有人在机坪上，很可能就会被击中。飞机的设计会保护机内人员，在飞机里的人最多是吓一跳，在机坪上可不是那么好玩的。

@航空物语：吓死了。不过飞机和汽车一样，外表可以导电，所以电流不会伤害内部的人员，但是飞机周边地面就比较危险了。雷雨季，安全第一。
