The rear lower cargo door on the commercial version, would blow off on these at altitude, and the passenger floor above would be sucked down, and the passengers on that section would be tossed out. This failure of the floor would sever the controls to the tail surfaces, and the aircraft fell from the sky. The problem was not found untill a couple of aircraft were lost. A defect in the door latching mechanism was found to be the cause. This was when it was first new to the skies.

The last thing I did before clearing DC-10's at LAX in the 70's was check the cargo door latches. Originally you held your free hand against the door to feel the locks thump into place. After this lock problem was discovered, they installed little windows so we could look and see that the locks were physically fulley engaged. I worked on DC-10's every day when I worked at LAX. Also the L-1011, 707, DC-8, 727, DC-9, 747.
