"Missing Window Panes on London to Orlando Flight Sparks Emergency Landing"

A flight from London to Orlando had to turn around after passengers discovered that some cabin windows were missing panes after takeoff. The windows were believed to have been damaged by high-powered lights used for filming the day before. The crew noticed a window seal "flapping in the airflow" and decided it was safest to return to the airport. Upon landing, it was discovered that two window panes were missing and another was out of place. Investigations are ongoing to understand the properties of the lights used and how to manage this risk in the future.
