Default Door hinges

The design below is my first draft for the door hinges that will come with the A352 kit. They will use a single M10 bolt as the pivot, bolted to the new door/crash bar in the Spitfire door opening. Any vertical adjustment will be done at the pivot end with shims/washers, and addition movement at the door end where the hinge bolts through the inner door skin.




The doors are a very good fit straight out of the mould, so very little adjustment should be required.
