 The
Door Steward™ is a product
improvement installation that greatly improves the operation of the aircraft
doors. The installation consists of a gas spring attached to brackets mounted
on the door and the airframe. When the door is unlatched the gas spring gently
but firmly opens the door to the full open position. The gas spring while in
the open position protects the aircraft and occupants from unexpected openings
and closings by providing resistance to considerably higher wind gusts and prop
wash than the original stops. In addition, the gas spring is extremely simple
and reliable. The weight of each door installation is ½ Lb. The original door
stops can either be removed or left on the door as long as they are operating
properly and not interfering with the Door
Steward™. Closing the door compresses the gas spring. The gas
spring can easily be removed from its brackets to facilitate removal of the aircraft door, replacement of a defective gas spring or to conduct other
maintenance.
