## Discrepancy

DURING CLIMB OUT, GOING THROUGH 600 FT, THE SLIDING WINDOW OF THE PILOT'S DOOR WINDOW DEPARTED THE AIRCRAFT.  MAINTENANCE FOUND THE TRACK WHERE THE SLIDING WINDOW RIDES WAS DEBONDED FROM THE WINDOW.  TRACK WAS REGLUED WITH EPOXY RESIN AND SECURED TO THE WINDOW WITH PANHEAD SCREWS AND NUTS.  SOME DEBONDING DETECTED ON WINDOW TRACKS OF OTHER BK117S IN THE FLEET.  ALL WINDOW TRACKS ON ALL WINDOWS ON ALL BK117S AND BO105 IN THE FLEET WERE INSPECTED, REBONDED AS NEEDED AND SECURED WITH SCREWS AND NUTS.
