Lightning strikes Arkia plane

None

An Arkia aircraft on its way to Eilat from Ben Gurion Airport Wednesday was forced to return to Ben Gurion after being struck by lightening. No one was injured but damage was caused to a wheel on the plane, and the pilots decided not to continue the flight.

 

The plane landed safely and passengers were transferred to an alternative flight. (Eli Senior)
