DENVER - A flight heading to San Antonio, TX, had to return to DIA on Wednesday afternoon because of a crack in the windshield.

GoJet flight 5306 had about 40 people on board when it had to turn around.

GoJet's United Express flights operate out of United Airlines hubs in Chicago, Denver and Washington D.C.

Authorities are still investigating what caused the crack.

Comment: One month and one week later, another cracked windshield - wonder what it is about Denver International Airport and the area that surrounds it that seems to be 'attracting' cracked windshields this year? See the flashback article for more information on how rare cracked jet windshields are.
