Default Lightning hitting Kennedy's jet.

Wonder how the crew could divert to HVN and fly *manually* when they claim that all power was lost.

The article said all "electrical" power was lost. The flight controls
are mechanical, although a landing at a towered field without comm
could be interesting.

Anyone know or see more details about Ted Kennedy's jet being struck by lightning last Friday


Pierre Salinger said it was hit by a missile...
