Abstract
A decompression panel includes a body portion having a first end and a second end opposing the first end. The decompression panel also includes a tab extending along the first end and a flange coupled to the body portion. The flange defines a slot adjacent the second end. The decompression panel is secured in an airplane cabin by the tab and slot features, such that unwanted access to areas behind such panels is prevented.
