This happened a few times to 737.

Another one. https://www.nhregister.com/news/article/Avelo-flight-from-Tw...

It's not specific to 737. 787 also had a bunch of cracked pilot window issues not related to external impact.

It's also not specific to Boeing. All airplanes get cracked windows sometimes.


Doesnt a plane at high altitude with a cracked window at those speeds (900+ kmh/hr) pose a risk of exploding from too much cabin pressure especially if it's the front window; regardless of brand/company??

which may mean perhaps weather is to be factored before we blame a brand regardless; because no matter how you put it:

every company in any industry does things differently. Sometimes their practices are far from optimal, but at the very least they meet baseline before blaming or considering shareholders or quality control as the only culprit....
