## Discrepancy

WHILE LEVEL CRUISE AT FL320 BOTH PILOTS HEARD A LOUD BANG FOLLOWED BY LOUD HISSING SOUND AND NOTICED THE CABIN ALTITUDE BEGAN TO CLIMB QUICKLY.  AN EMERGENCY DESCENT WAS INITATED TO 10,000 FEET MSL.  DURING DESCENT THE CABIN ALTITUDE STABILIZED.  THE FLIGHT WAS DIVERTED TO OMA AND LANDED WITH NO FURTHER INCIDENT.  MAINTENANCE FOUND TEAR IN PAX DOOR SEAL.  REMOVED AND REPLACED SEAL AND PERFORMED LEAK CHECK IAW AIRCRAFT MAINTENANCE MANUAL.  NO DEFECTS NOTED, AIRCRAFT OKAY FOR SERVICE.
