Image: Twitter A SpiceJet flight bound for Gorakhpur in Uttar Pradesh was forced to return to Mumbai when a crack in the glass was discovered, as per an official statement. It's worth noting that flying with a damaged windshield is quite hazardous. The time spent flying with a damaged windshield might exacerbate the crack, perhaps resulting in death.
"On May 28, SpiceJet Boeing 737 aircraft was scheduled to operate SG-385 (Mumbai-Gorakhpur). During cruise, windshield outer pane was observed to be cracked," the airline's spokesperson said.
The pilot-in-command decided to return to Mumbai, the spokesperson said. The air traffic controller was apprised and the aircraft landed safely at the Mumbai airport, the spokesperson added.
