This Pakistani International Airlines Boeing 777 was operating Paris-Milan-Lahore recently when it encountered a monster of a thunderstorm in flight that produced some good size hail. Obviously the hail blasted the nose cone and shattered the wind screen. Damage was also done to the leading edge of the aircraft's wings. Registration was AP-BHX.
