segmented flat panels

Laminated safety glass has been available in flat panes.As a last ditch effort,you could do as Kamm and Carl Breer did,creating a panoramic windscreen of segmented panes.
Bob Parsons would double-score the glass on the cut line,then momentarily ignite lighter fluid applied to the score to heat and soften the adhesive bond before snapping.He got very good results.
Our 'best' cut-down artist in the area has only a 33% success rate altering compound -curve windshields.
