Door Questions

[rocketman2tm]

my experience is exactly as Jim describes.
I too would like to try those door latches. Who is supplying those?

I sketched it up and 3D printed them. Below is a link to the Thingiverse file for them. I've tested mine up to 130mph with the doors cracked open. I don't know how much difference there is between airplanes to know if this would be a universal part or not.

A fellow named Brian Bush makes the aluminum two-position latches. I seem to recall buying my set from him directly, but now I can't find his online sales portal. I vaguely remember reading that he's in a Kitfox group on Facebook, but I have no idea how to find that.

It appears that his latches are available from Bryan Bowen through his Bowen Aero website. Scroll all the way to the bottom of this page.

And that's the reason I'm not trying to sell mine. I feel ok printing my own and sharing the files for others to print but not ok profiting off of Bryan's ideas.
