An emergency descent was initiated, followed by a successful landing at Qatar's Doha International Airport. Two passengers were killed when they were ejected through the hole in the cabin floor.[1] Probable causeThe probable cause of the incident was determined to be a fatigue failure of a flange on the hub of one of the main landing gear wheels. This failure had resulted in one of the tires blowing out. The debris from this explosion had penetrated the cabin of the airplane, causing the explosive decompression. B.F. Goodrich Co. and Lockheed were found to share responsibility for their failure to assess safety hazards associated with this particular wheel design. In addition, the United States Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) was found to have had inadequate oversight of the manufacturers.[1] AftermathThe aircraft was repaired and returned to service with Saudia.[1] References1. ^1 2 3 4 {{cite web |url=http://aviation-safety.net/database/record.php?id=19801222-2 |title=Aviation Safety Network|website=Aviation Safety Network |accessdate=18 October 2014}} 2. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.airfleets.net/ficheapp/plane-l10-1161.htm|title=Lockheed L-1011 TriStar — MSN 1161 — HZ-AHJ Last Airline Saudia|last=|first=|date=|website=|publisher=Airfleets aviation|archiveurl=https://www.webcitation.org/6HBw7NW4O?url=http://www.airfleets.net/ficheapp/plane-l10-1161.htm|archivedate=2013-06-07|dead-url=|accessdate=2013-06-06}} 3. ^{{cite web|url=http://jetphotos.net/census/aircraft.php?reg=HZ-AHJ&msn=1161|title=Lockheed L1011-1-15(200) HZ-AHJ|last=|first=|date=|website=|publisher=JetPhotos.Net|archiveurl=https://www.webcitation.org/6HBw8hJep?url=http://jetphotos.net/census/aircraft.php?reg=HZ-AHJ|archivedate=2013-06-07|dead-url=|accessdate=2013-06-06}} External links
