Another good reason why you do not fly through towering cumulonimbus:


"I am glad that I never flew through a hail storm like this.  What type
of aircraft is this BAX?


It isn't often I see pictures like these.? The accompanying words are
quoted below

"Last night circa 2300 our BAX aircraft flight 705BX encountered severe
weather over Alberta Canada. The aircraft was cruising at 35,000 feet
when it encountered tennis ball sized hail. The pictures below show some
of the damage. All landing lights were destroyed, as was the radar. The
crew was forced to make a "blind" emergency landing. Upon safe return to
the ground the first officer and flight engineer quit. It is expected
that the aircraft is a total loss as its structural integrity has been
compromised."


Did you ever say to yourself, "I'll never fly with that guy again?"
