## Discrepancy

FLT 5329 - FLL-TPA - DURING CLIMB-OUT, THE CREW HEARD A LOUD NOISE COMING FROM THE CABIN.  THEY DETERMINED THAT THE AIRSTAIR DOOR SEAL HAD POPPED OUT OF ITS SEAT.  THE AIRCRAFT EXPERIENCED A SLIGHT DEPRESSURIZATION, BUT THE OXYGEN MASKS WERE NOT DEPLOYED.  AIRCRAFT RETURNED TO THE FIELD WITHOUT FURTHER INCIDENT.  MAINTENANCE REINSTALLED THE DOOR SEAL, OPS CHECKED GOOD.  AIRCRAFT WAS RETURNED TO SERVICE.  (M)
