enclosing a volume of 4.5 cubic meters
(158 cubic feet).
Access to the passenger compartment is provided through two wide-opening doors,
one on each side. The doors are hinged at their forward edge, and swing open through
nearly 180° to present an almost unobstructed threshold to the cabin. The door opening
is 0.9 meters (35.6 inches) wide by 1.45 meters (57 inches) high. The three-point
latching system, and slam-closing feature insure a secure, tight fit when closed. The
flush exterior handles, common keyed lock, and full perimeter sealing are the same as
for the crew doors. Additionally, a door open indicator pin, visible to the pilot, identifies
an unlocked door. The door hinge incorporates hold-open detents at approximately
90° and 115° and a pin-type securing mechanism which enables the door to be locked
in it's forward position.
