Fuselage
a.
Carefully
inspect
the
exterior
ofthe
airplane.
Evidence
of
a
strike will
usually
appear
as a
burned
hole
or
as
a
series of
bumed holes
in
metallic surfaces. Plastic
parts
may
be
delaminated and/or
deformed
due
to
high
internal
pressures.
Normally
two
or more
points
will be
found,
the
entry
and
the
exit
points.
Antennas
are
frequently
an
entry
point
of
lightning
and
should
be
carefully
inspected
for
evidence
of
arcing,
sooting
or
pitting.
b. From the
point
of
entry,
the
strike
usually
spreads
aft
in
a
series
of small
holes
or
burn
marks.
After the
points
of
entry
and exit
are
found,
the
structure
between these
points
should be
carefully
inspected.
Attention
should be
given
to
hinges
and
hinge
pins
for
possible
pitting.
Cables,
pulleys,
bearings,
bolts
and all
bonding
jumpers
in the
area
should
be
inspected
for
possible
damage.
Antennas,
electrical
and
electronic
equipment
should be
visually
checked for
damage
and
functionally
checked
for
operation.
If
the strike
was
near
the fuel
vent,
all
plumbing
should
be
carefully
inspected
for
damage.
Steel
components
may
exhibit
magnetism
and
require
degaussing
so
as
not
to
affect
compass
systems.
