Last Tuesday afternoon, 2nd March a Canadair Challenger N721G flew over my house, I believe it had routed over Compton, and a while later pilot requested from London TMA controller a change in Flight Level due to turbulence.
Later, he notified London he was diverting (to Luton I think, was given runwas 08) due to a cracked windshield.
Just wondering, could turbulence/shaking cause the crack or is it more likely something hit it? I think weather was pretty clear, as in no hail etc. but unsure how to get weather reports for the time.
Also is there a website that would retrospectively track this flight? He just used registration as callsign.
Many thanx for any advice.:ok:
