We had the capt's widshield crack sending spiders webs across his view at FL390...scared the $hit out of us when it went pop. Since it was the outer layer only, no need to descend and continued on from PHX to BUF....get ready AT boys..this is how we do it here at ol SWA.

LOL! Just wait till you guys start flying the 717s! Rolls Royce has assured us the problems have been fixed...........
 
Windshields crack all the time. Shattered windshields are a lot more spicy.

Crew did well...

My last one was an outer pane shatter at FL470. Can't remember what we were talking about before the event... kinda lost train of thought in the conversation. ;)

On the deck in 15 minutes... good stuff.

Did you have to put your clothes back on?

Not very creative at all. I'm sure there were many much better options than the Millenium anywhere along the way.
