"Surprised nobody picked it up, same thing happened to a 757 freighter in 2014, it was updated on AVH yesterday"

The Yakutia 757PCF had the same Precision Conversions STC as the DHL aircraft, both installed by Flightstar at Cecil (the Yakutia a couple of years earlier). The two PCFs were the 22nd and 29th conversions, respectively, under that STC.

The damage sustained was notably similar, too, with the inner lining of the door appearing to have been torn off in the airflow.
