Brief Description:
Baggage Door 1
Made the baggage door as per plans and found the fit to be pretty good with the exception of the outboard skin which sticks up quite a bit.
Before I edge roll/bend it I'll post on VAF to see what others have done.
I posted on VAF and the consensus was to hand seam/edge roll the door edge. So I did and the result is quite acceptable.
The hinge and latch pin block will not be installed until the forward skin is finally riveted on.
