Would bring back a lot of memories for me Dave, I worked on them at Culdrose NASU

Used to love going on test flights for blade tracking.

Far as I remember the rear doors opened normally, the front doors opened out and up if you look at the pics you can
see where the hinges would be on the front doors.

Sorry it's not that clear

Ok did a little digging for you inbetween work here, got a couple of shots of the rear and front door open

They are not that good or clear but I think you can get the info you need from them. Finding a shot of
the front door took the time .

Hope it helps

Looking good, slight flashback as the side number in the last screen shot (426) is the same as the one on the Lynx flight I've just left!

Or in fact all the screen shots as I've just noticed!!

Yep your making great progress, one small point if I may........that front door is not opening correctly, it hinges on the top side of
the door, if you look at the pic I posted your'll get a better idea. If this is not possible no worries at all, just thought I would mention.

Thanks
