## Discrepancy

WHILE ENROUTE FROM DCA TO VPS, THE CAPTAIN'S SIDE WINDSHIELD SHATTERED.  DISPATCHER AND CREW MADE THE DECISION TO DIVERT TO CLT.  EMERGENCY WAS DECLARED.  FLIGHT HAS LANDED SAFELY AND WILL SWAP TO A SPARE AIRPLANE WHEN A GATE IN CLT BECOMES AVAILABLE.  R & R CA WINDSHIELDS, IAW CRJ 700 AMM 56-11-01-000/400-801-A01-PSA.  OPERATIONS CHECK AND LEAK CHECK OK.
