## Discrepancy

2 MINUTES OUT OF LANDING,THE PILOT REPORTED (ON LANDING) THAT HE HAD TAKEN A LIGHTNING STRIKE TO THE NOSE OF THE ACFT.  INSP OF THE ACFT REVEALED THAT THE TIP OF THE RT ELEVATOR HAD "BLOWN UP".  A MECHANIC HAS BEEN DISPATCHED TO THE SCENE WITH AN ELEVATOR AND WILL FURTHER INVESTIGATE FOR MORE DAMAGE.
