DAL1192 Lightning Strike Descending into KATL
« on: April 10, 2024, 03:25:56 UTC »
On April 9, DAL1192 was on initial approach to KATL when the crew declared an emergency due to a possible lightning strike.  There was bad weather in the area at the time.  They asked the controller to expedite the approach.  DAL1192 landed safely a short time later on runway 8L and stopped on the runway so that emergency crews could inspect the aircraft.  The A321 taxied off the runway a short time later on its own power.
