Default Success on the door gap/opening problem

First picture shows how much I have had to build up the leading edge of the door
I have just run a thick felt tipped pen along the trailing edge of the wing, this marked the front of the door, I then used this line to sand back to give me a pretty even door gap, obviously needs to be filled and neatened up.


Gap against inner wing with door fully open and a bit of pressure against it.

small section of old wing mount removed



Door fully open with extra pressure applied, plenty of gap and no need to shorten the check straps.
Even passed the wife test.
