Not all that long ago, I was struck by lightning while flying. I saw the bolt right out the windscreen. It hit just to the side of the nose. And, in case you were wondering, there was indeed a browning of certain cotton fibers in the flightdeck that day.

It's also important to point out that even after that, the plane is flying along under power without any obvious issues besides a lot of ruined pants. Even the nav lights and strobes are functioning after the strike.
