Back in the days before I was flying for the majors I used to fly for a company who had a large fleet of nearly deralict DC-8s. I can't count the number of times I've stuck a wet cloth onto a side window seal. These old birds were bent dryed out and leaky. The whistling noise at altitude would drive you insane specially on a trans Pacific flight. The cloth trick works pretty good.
Had a over wing exit seal blow out one day on a 737. The noise was so horrendus in the passenger cabin that we landed in Las Vegas and got the people on another plane. But we had no indication on the flight deck what so ever.
As Azlibertarion says a bullet through the skin just ain't an issue.
Az, 320, have you guys applied to the FFDO program yet? Are you going to?
