Yes you do.
Nothing usually happens. When struck by lightning, the electrical energy travels through the metal skin of the aircraft and is dissipated through the static wicks. Burn marks will be found at the entry and exit point of the strike ( exit points occur if not all the energy is dissipated via the wicks ). Occasionally in the more severe instances electrical equipment or avionics may be affected or damaged.
Lightning does not hit something every time it strikes. There are various forms of lightning. Lightning that is classified as "cloud to ground" lightning will strike something in it's path. Another form of lightning is sheet lightning. This type of lighting illuminates the sky and spreads from cloud to cloud.
Yes. Vehicles have been hit by lighting.
Because lightning could hit you

Yes. Astraphobia, or the fear of thunder and lightning could be the result of being hit, if you survive the hit tho.
A lighting rod is supposed to attract lightning so it doesnt hit something else. eg. It's raining and you have a lightning rod on the top of your hous. Lightning will hit the rod instead of hitting the house.
Being struck by lightning is unlike a physical blow. there is no 'hardness' to it.
