If he welds it, as suggested, he won't need to stop drill it.

On the inside shot, the tip of that fantastically drawn arrow just touches the crack. Looking above the crack it looks like the bus was attacked by birds. :-) I am hoping that it is a failed repair from days of old, as they could not have turned that kind of work out of the factory (I hope!!).

I saw some pretty crappy welds in my bus (saw some after I worked on it, too This is a typical place for cracks. Either in this member,or in the horizontal member directly above this area.Weld it. Grind it. Plate it. Another option is to remove the D window and double up the vertical member. More work that way, though.
