I believe this is a Convair 880 (?) coming in to MIA in the late 70s.
The cargo door opened at a sufficiently low altitude to be able to recover. A safe landing was carried out.

Gents, it is a strech 8 !
Some american carrier (can't remember the name) took off without securing the cargo door. Returned without further complications (save the extensive paperwork).
