Holy Crap!

Talk about a hull breech. That's the worst strike I've ever seen.

I think this was the ASA jet that had the electrical fire on the ground rather than a lightning strike.....I could be wrong though...

It was a fire at the gate.

There's a story on this over at FlightPod Television (Episode 003)
