Beech loses cargo door

Just heard (Sat pm) a Beechcraft Premier jet lost its cago door while on descent
into Lanseria from George at approx 10 000ft. Five pax and two crew on board. Landed safely. Well done to the crew.

Bloody door

Ai tog boys, Why allways on the attack, if you understand how these aircraft work you will understand that there will be a little red light on the dash, sometimes followed by an aural warning, a nice little lass saying "DOORS" indicating that the useless co-pilot is still hung-over from last night. It is however appreciated that you boys fly old chickencoops around the sky that probably have none of these indications.

It was acccording to my very inside knowlege a structural problem that occurred on the descent. There are several boytjies out there trying to find said cargo door and soon we all will know, stop speculating and stop blaming the crew, let's find the truth and all have a beer on the manufacturer.
