This is scary for anyone who travels frequently by plane!!!!
An actual crack in a US Airways DC-9 window frame!
This could have caused a major in-flight problem! I notified a friend in aircraft certification to see what action the FAA could take.

HE HE
The crack was probably caused by a sudden blast of pressure. Probably due to faulty plumbing........

Umm. I am a plane dork. Parents worked in the Airline field. As a kid I could identify all of them with a quick glance... still have that skill now.
That said, how do you know?
