## Discrepancy

DURING FLIGHT, RT WINDSHIELD MIDDLE PANE SHATTERED (INNER AND OUTER PANE REMAINED INTACT).  ACFT WAS 30 MINUTES INTO FLIGHT AT FL270.  ACFT CREW RECEIVED CLEARANCE TO LOWER ALTITUDE AND DIVERTED.  ACFT REMAINED UNTIL A FERRY PERMIT WAS ACQUIRED.  THE ACFT WAS THEN RELOCATED FROM FOR REPAIRS.
