Reminds me of an Iraqui Airways B737-200 that diverted into BAH around 1979. It had taken off from DOH and the capt had seen a thick line on the radar. It was so straight he thought it was a defect with the radar. So they ignored it. All flt deck windscreens crazed and they autolanded at BAH with no fwd visibilty.
A team came down from Baghdad to fix it. They changed the four windscreens and replaved the engine nose domes (which had been bent sideways) and covered all the leading edges in thiokol and speed tape and flew it home. The maint team was led by a young Iraqui girl, which caused great surprise among the local engineers. She was ferocious and the aircraft was only in the GF hangar for two days.
