Last summer I was fortunate to be flying in a commercial aircraft across Minnesota during some very strong thunderstorms. The pilot woke up the passengers with an announcement that we were flying along side the most spectacular electrical storm he had ever seen in over 30 years of flying! With my face as close to the window as I could get, I looked in every direction at continuous lightning of every type and description! I saw a least one red sprite and probably more TLEs. There was more activity than my eyes could take in at one time. It was an experience of a lifetime!
