Incredible the nonsense you hear about aviation incidents/accidents.

First off, the Douglas DC-8 and 9 have plug type passenger
and cargo doors. The only exceptions will be the Main topside
(very large cargo door) and the"Jet escape" on the stretch models.

They are plug type that pressurisation make physically impossible to open.

So, for baggage to fall off, and pressurisation not to work,
they HAD to be wide open just before
those pictures where taken, before they must have crept in
semi-closed position.

They slide up INSIDE against the wall for the belly doors just as
the passenger doors have to do a complicated monkey motion
to finally plug tight against the airframe.

So, ALL the reports, allegations and comments here by the press
or the company agents are by simple logic, all big fat lies...
