My experience with flying with close by electrical storms proved that wrist loops were a good idea. Trying to squeak out one more flight before a thunder head covered us, I flew a wing over with my Sterling Lark and it was like trying to hold onto a spark plug on Dad's lawn mower. Later in life I learned about electrical induction and how magnetos work. Huh.. metallic wires moving through a magnetic field. "Pa Pap"
Great memories are made of this stuff.
