## Discrepancy

RIGHT FORWARD OVERWING EXIT DOOR FELL OPEN DURING LANDING.  NO PASSENGERS WERE ON THE AIRCRAFT.  THE PLASTIC TRIM PANEL ON THE DOOR CRACKED WHEN THE DOOR FELL OUT.  MAINTENANCE FOUND THE DOOR DAMAGED AND OUT OF RIG.  REPLACED THE DOOR AND PLASTIC INNER LINER.  OPERATIONAL CHECK GOOD.  AIRCRAFT RETURNED TO SERVICE.
