We were flying back from California... Climbing in altitude. Passing through dense clouds. Visibility five feet. Peaceful. I love the ascent. I love the feeling of sinking back into the seat from the G-force.
Suddenly a loud crack. Flash of light right out of the engine! My heart races. The first thought through my mind, "ENGINE IS OUT! WE'RE GOING DOWN! This is it... I'm going to die!"
A few seconds, it dawned on me. It was lighting. I am alive.
