maybe the person was a spy (for AA) and got what he deserved. Hey it could have been someone of importance, like DP. :shock:
 
I hope the guy is all right... and the the Company start following lightning safety procedures. They don't here.
 
a capt told me on friday that he was there when it happen but that the person would be ok. i sure hope so. but itd be nice if the company would actually follow the lighting procedures no one on ramp when lighting is within the field or over it

I'm 99.9% sure the ramp was closed when this occurred. Glad he will be ok.
Ramp was not closed! We were under yellow conditions! Maybe the ramp should be closed under yellow conditions. Something to look at for sure.
 
I am not sure if the line hangar is tied in w/ lightning detection, I am sure the base hangar is, 700 would probably know if it is or not....
 
Both the line and base hangar are tied into the main lightening system
