## Discrepancy

FLT 256 - LGA-BED - WHEN THE MAIN PASSENGER DOOR WAS OPEN TO DEPLANE THE PASENGERS IN BED.  THE PASSENGER DOOR SUPPORT CABLE SNAPPED.  NOBODY WAS HURT, ALL PASSENGERS WERE DEPLANED NORMALLY.  MAINTENANCE REMOVED AND REPLACED THE PASSENGER DOOR SUPPORT CABLE.  NO OTHER DEFECTS WERE NOTED.  OPS CHECKED GOOD.  (M)
