SOMEONE SHOULD DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS !!!!!

This is scary for anyone who travels frequently by plane!!!! Actual crack in a US Airways DC-9 window frame! Fliers beware of the sub standard maintenance on the airplanes that you fly on. You won't believe this when you see it, this is an actual crack that was found in the window frame on a DC-9. This could have caused a major in-flight problem! I sent this to a friend in aircraft certification to see what action the FAA could take on this problem.

Yeah, and if the hole opens, there can be a sudden rush of gas during decompression...
