Kinda tore it up but makes a good case to stay out of the wx. He shouldn't have been out there without the radar anyway.

That wasn't hail - it was a boulder or he kissed the wall

I hope they called Ace Ventura to taxi that plane into the ramp..........open up the side window, stick your head out, and Let's Go!

Don't think that would have worked real well at 18000ft.

Like to see what the front end of the motors looked like.

It happens! The decision to depart was the first link in the chain. It's hard to tell the sequence of events from the poorly written report but lightning, hail, and turbulence tend to all arrive at the same time with thunderstorm penetration at altitude.

Yeah, I can't tell from the story if the radar was already out from a previous lightning strike or was knocked out from this one.
We were readying to leave FSM one day going to LAX in our 707. Storm moving in from the NW. Tower said move or a coming ground stop would probably shut things down about an hour. I stopped the gabfest going on planeside and got all on board as engines started turning. Straight out to the runway and a sharp turn just after gear. A dip to the South and we were in the clear. Sometimes you just gotta make that Winnebago act like a 'Vette. LOL

Nothing wrong with taking a clear out and being on your way. Simply taking off hoping to find an out often shows up in statistics.
I used to get into FSM quite a bit when the company I was with built a plant in Van Buren. Serious weather often affected our trips. Later I flew out of there for a month while helping the ABF guys get checked out on a new jet. One of my favorite airports.

We were up at the West End, just off 7. You know how that wx can be up there. Look across the NW and see nothing but solid black. Look South and see open sky. That is what we did that day, out and right down 7 with a turnback to the West toward LAX. We scooted South a little. It was a fairly shallow line and a few miles out into OK we were back on track. The only thing that bothered me about that airport, and it's still that way, is that you are basically hit by 3 centers, depending on direction. It is actually under control of MEM and is fine if you are going East, but if you are West or Northbound, you hit Ft Worth or KC before you get to your FL. Which ABF jet did you check them out on and when?
