The crack in the four-layer thick glass left cockpit crew terrified as the plane made its transatlantic voyage.

I can just imagine the in-flight announcement over the P.A. after that crack suddenly developed:

"G-g-good-dd afternoon-nn, ladies and g-g-g-gentlem-m-men. Th-th-this is your c-c-captain speaking! Is there anyone onboard with a tube of Superglue or something that we could use to patch up a humungous crack in our front windshield? Also: I think I just crapped my pants!"

Reminds me of the Far Side cartoon where the copilot says something panicky because a light is on, but it’s just the intercom light, and now the passengers are freaked out.
