The exit door of an airplane belonging to Dana Air fell off upon touchdown.

Ola Orekunrin of Flying Doctors Nigeria on her Twitter shared a photo of the aircraft with its door absent.

Flew Dana. Exit door was unstable throughout the flight. As we touched down it fell off. Scary stuff.

The door had been unstable all through the flight, rattling. She had believed it was only a loose screw, she wrote.

However, upon touchdown, the door fell off.

Lagos Airport, responding to the tweet, wrote that “it may appear” to be an issue with the door trim panel, but the main door remains secure.

Good morning Ola. It may appear to be an issue with the door trim panel but the main door remains secure. @DanaAir hereby Cc
