| Background: | Under certain conditions, if a Windscreen A Panel were to fail causing a rapid decompression and the flight deck door were in a closed position, the resultant differential pressure between the flight deck and cabin could result in deformation of the flight deck bulkhead at Frame 12 and the cable duct attached to it. This duct protects the primary flying control cables that run in this area and any deformation could result in the duct contacting these cables, leading to restriction of the primary flying controls. |
