Lightning DOES strike twice!

The chartered British Airways plane touched down at Andrews Air Force base
outside Washington.

About 20 minutes before landing the 777 jet was struck by a small lightning bolt
while flying at about 10,000 feet.

The lightning struck the left-hand wing but did not cause it to change course or
descend.

Captain John Lindsey quickly reassured Mr Blair, his officials and reporters
travelling on the plane.
