The lightning peak current amplitudes and peak current derivatives recorded on short and tall towers and aircraft, obtained through EM field measurements in a high probability of occurrence region are successfully verified by the use of a unified lightning threat concept. The lightning peak current amplitudes and peak current derivatives are then extended to a low probability of occurrence region to determine the anticipated values of both variables. A comparison of the existing standards for protection of an aircraft with the anticipated peak current amplitudes and peak current derivatives is presented along with conclusions concerning the adequacy of existing standards.
