Fellow Builders
I am in the process of working on the doors and the main problem I see is that the alignment of the door is controlled by the hinge placement. In my set of hinges there was 1/32 of side play which I shimmed out. If the hinges are installed precisely then the door drops down and closes into the correct position.The only time the door is guided into position is on the last 1/4 inches of travel when the bevelled door edges come into contact with the fuselage. Now in the ideal setting which I guess would be wings off, precisely bushed and installed hinges and standing on the floor outside the aircraft while closing the door, all things work beautifully. But, in real life you will sitting inside the aircraft so there will be no visual references to help guide the door, there will be a hinges/pin mechanism that is forever wearing and causing more play (fore and aft movement of the door) and when you close the door you will be relying to a large extent on that last 1/4 inch bevel to guide the door into the correct position. I am not comfortable with relying on the last 1/4 inch. In my opinion the major mod that should be made is a method of guiding the door into it's correct position. The guide should come into play long before the last 1/4 inch. I am making my door in such a way that it is guided into the correct position and it will be impossible to throw the pins if the door is not properly seated. I believe that the latching mechanism is adequate but mods to the receiver area and to the pin ends can easily be made in any shop.
Doors!!! and I thought building a canopy was a pain!

When I went to install a set in my rv10, I modified them to be much easier
to install. After seeing my mods coupled with the shipping delays I was
asked to reproduce a similar product by a few builders. I think they are a
very good anchor for the door rods to latch into, and should add a margin of
strength to the latch mech. I do offer them on my website (available
immediately  sorry for the commercial announcement, I just want all to
know there are options...
