Seems the hole was caused by a failed Oxy cylinder BBOOOMM!!. They are stored along that side of the fwd cargo and contain O2 at about 1720 psi. QF sent a team of specialists well 3 anyway - A LAME and 2 Sheeties plus they were outnumbered by "managers". Lucky it wasn't a dinosaur as the oxy bottles in those are in the cargo roof which is also the cabin floor. Also ALL the control cables run above the cargo. Good ol' GD sacked all the guys who recovered OJH and could have recovered this one too. Looks like it will have to be out sourced perhaps to Boeing. There are reports from locals that there is significant structural damage around door 2 R from the initial explosion and decompression.
Any one know where the O2 bottles are overhauled, OS perhaps?
