A heads up on the door hinges.
If you read the plans carefully, you'll find a confusing error. They show the left door hinges with the proper parts call out. When the plans say to repeat the steps for the right door, if you where to use the same parts call out, they would be reversed. It was obvious that something was wrong, but I wasn't sure which door was wrong. I called Scott at Vans and he went out to the company's RV10 and took pictures and emailed me them. The call out for the left door is correct, that is the lower part of the hinge should face the center of the door, as the plans show. The right door should just mirror image the left, although the part numbers are reversed. Better safe than sorry, so I always check when something doesn't compute. Thanks to Scott for his prompt help, and not laughing at me for requiring clarification for something as probably obvious to most.

Hi
Save yourself some grief and fit you doors with the seals on. The geometry changes after the seals are in place.
Cheers

Hi Again
For clarity – I mean after the hinges are installed and you are working on fitting the door so that the gaps etc are correct.

I too looked very carefully at this section, before deciding the instructions are correct. You'll notice they refer to the hinges as "left" and "right", not fore and aft. The "left" and "right" are correct for both doors (as you face them); obviously, "fore" and "aft" are reversed as you move to the right hand door.
