Cracked windshield

Here’s the text to the listening from yesterday.

Enjoy!!

A 767, was performing a flight from Los Angeles (USA) to Chicago. While it was enroute at FL330, a crack suddenly started to develop in the windshield. It continued to develop until it formed a large spider web across the windshield. The crew decided to divert to Denver for a safe landing about 25 minutes after the crack started to develop. After landing, the passengers were disembarked and waited 4 hours for another plane to continue their journey.
