Pietenpol-List: door designs

Subject: Pietenpol-List: door designsI know that although its not part of the design and for purity sake probably not a proper modification which undoubtedly will bring tears to the eyes of the Piet purist, however. I know of no contortionist and therefor have to consider the possibility of passenger access and egress!Does anyone have a good structural design or drawing they would be willing to share for a passenger door? I would prefer a tried and true design that is designed to bolster the airframe rather than one that detracts from its structural integrity, so good engineering is key.I would appreciate hearing your thoughts and seeing any designs you the group may have. I figure that at the build stage I am at now planning and installing a door as part of the design is a lot easier and makes more sense thantrying to cut one in after the fact.ThanksJohn************************************** See what's free at http://www.aol.com.________________________________________________________________________________
