Incident Overview
During a routine descent from 14,000 feet, the second row right side cabin window suddenly blew out. The flight crew immediately initiated an emergency descent and subsequently landed the aircraft at the intended airport without further incident.
Inspection Findings
After landing, the window and its frame were examined. The frame and the connecting bolts appeared undamaged. However, two indentations were noted on the fuselage: one just forward of the window and another aft of the ice protection plate.
Passenger Accounts
Several passengers reported hearing loud bumps or thumps prior to the window blowing out. These sounds were noted as occurring before the sudden depressurization event.
Conclusion
The source does not provide a probable cause for the window blowout. Investigation into the indentations and the reported noises is ongoing.
