Yeah, come on Ralf.  We want to hear about Doritos bags blowing up and all
that fun stuff!

Ralf,
That is a pretty calm way to report the incident.  You didn't mention any
damage to the seat covers?  :>)

Are we to understand that you just calmly requested a lower altitude and
then continued on to your destination?

Subject: [LML] 4P rear window blew out

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?
