What if the original glass windscreens had not been replaced? Are the plastic windscreens as strong as the glass re bird strikes?

Let's hear about test data for the plastic vice the glass before we get too carried away.

But.....if there is a difference and the plastic are shown to be less able to withstand a bird strike....then it is a good case for the lawyers who sue the operator in the name of the dead.
