From analysis of large number of actual cases, lightning discharges to aircraft in flight are determined to be between two oppositely charged regions in cumulo type clouds and to occur most frequently in zone adjacent to freezing isotherm; flight procedure through cumulo clouds to avoid lightning discharges is given.
