Cargo doors

Made a start on the Cargo doors. I’ve decided to hinge them using clevis pins rather than bolts. The .025 skins arrived with hinge slots cut in the wrong place, so I’m deciding how to proceed. I currently have enough skin material to get one good door skin, and plan to buy and make up a second. Also deciding whether to use machine screws and tap threads into the steel frame, or rivet, or bond. Bonding holds an appeal, but it is rather permanent.

The rear door locking mechanism is now installed and finished using short clevis pins.
