Brief Description:  finish baggage door and tidy up

I had a few bolts to torque, a few steps to clean up the last details of the control system.

Rather than start a new section, I decided to finish up the baggage doors. I have the lock sets and ignition set from vans and can finish this up.

I found that I set the hinge at a very slight angle along the door. It is near flush on the bottom of the door and slightly proud at the top. Not a big deal, and likely not observable unless attention is called to it. It actually turned out good because the pin is blocked by the structure on the bottom. Even with the top slighty proud of the surface I had to cut away a small notch in the skin and slightly elongate the top loop of the hinge to get the pin in. Getting it out will be possible, but challenging.

I added sound insulation behind the close out panel. I plan on using the insulation behind every panel to quiet and temperature control the cabin a little. Total weight add should be less than ten pounds. If it works, I think it is well worth it.
