I believe C J Campbell posted he could find only 1 reference to an explosive
decompression incident involveing commercial pax A/C.

The following, in no particular order are explosive decompression incidents
occuring over the past ~ 35 years in no particular order.

Several incidents involveing early DC-10's due a "Door Design Problem". 1
catastrophic incident involved Turkish Airlines in/over France. Another IRC
involved a NW Airlines A/C near Detroit that made a sucessful landing.

The pressure bulkhead of a 747 blew out in/over Japan with catastrophic
consequences.

A 737 on an inter island flight lost a section of it's top near Hawaii.

While military, another incident of note was the catastrophic crash of a C-5
carrying "Orphans" as it departed Saigon in the early 70's due explosive
decompression when the rear pressure door locks failed.

I apologize for not folowing the post in the thread, but MS OLE decided the
post in ? should disapear by "Crashing" my computer as I was responding.
