A pilot has captured St. Elmo's Fire from his cockpit. Airbus captain Luis Andress was flying last month when he encountered the scene.
St. Elmo's Fire occurs when the atmosphere becomes charged and an electrical discharge of plasma is created between an object and the air around it. This can happen to aircraft flying through heavily charged skies.
Luis explains: "I live in Florida, and was doing the MIA-DEN on the same day the Hurricane Ian was passing by. It was a spectacle to see the phenomenon of St. Elmo's Fire. It was such a show.
