This is not really new, and I not sure it is news worthy. Pieces have been falling off planes for years. Usually because of improper installation. the plane obviously landed safely.... get a new door, or repair the old one. Obviously did ok for the flight... maybe they can put a CDL against it and fly it until a new one arrives.

Stuff happens. Lot of moving parts in the slipstream of an aircraft. Back in the early '70's I worked for a company that operated DC-6, CV-640, and L-188 freighters out of ATL. From time to time the airport would call us to come identify/pick-up various sheet metal panels, cowling parts, etc., that had been brought in from surrounding neighborhoods in the runway flight paths. Old news is no news. Glad no one was injured.
