In 1988 an Aloha Airlines 737 was on it's way from Hilo to Honolulu when 1/3 of the roof ripped off, exposing the plane and passengers at 24,000 feet and killing one flight attendant. The plane was completely decompressed.

My parents visited Hawaii not too long after that incident occurred and landed at the same airport where the plane was being kept. It was on the tarmac and the roof was gaping open. Pretty scary sight to see as you're landing!
