Thought that I was the one with all the bad luck.  Glad you got it
down with no other problens.  I would check with the factory for a
replacement window.  They were able to get me a replacement windshield
year or two ago. BTW, this is the first time I have heard of a rear
window problem.  Usually its the pilots door window.

Good luck with the repairs,  Bill H..

Dear subscribers,

Does anybody have a spare driver rear window for a 4P?

Mine blew out at FL200 last night coming home from Florida. A few
personal belongings got sucked out of the cabin but the airplane handled
just fine and no emergency was declared.

Three corners of the window are still in the frame. The outside skin of
the plane is fine except on rear vertical line - there is about a three
inch tear. It is pretty obvious that the plexi-glass must have cracked
and not the outside skin. Some minor paint damage on the horizontal
stab. Anybody out there with a similar experience?

Ralf
