rear patroller door 337?

[Todd]

I have all plexiglass Trimmer STC seaplane doors on my 22/20 and am considering an all-plexiglass rear door which I have seen before on another Pacer. What's the opinion regarding major or minor mod and if it's major are there any supporting 337 docs out there?

I say minor modification thus a logbook entry. You can determine for yourself here.https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&sour...kl0oEFv1DMt_DQ

Thanks for your reply and the link. I agree it seems to meet the criterion for minor mod.

I used log book entry for my all plexi glass front doors. I used one sheet of lexan bent to fit the doors. The rear door has the D style window and the rest is covered with fabric to save weight.

Fabric is an interesting idea I hadn't thought about. I complicated my life by lowering the bottom of the starboard rear window to line up with the bottom of the Trimmer seaplane door. On the rear door side, a matching window shape crosses below the hinge bracket making a one piece plexi or lexan skin seem like the easiest solution, which I like except for the added weight.

I like it!

Eric says you are getting close.

Hi Stephen- Yes, inching closer. The wing root fairings are built and ready for paint, all that's left is the plexiglass in the doors and a few pieces of Kydex interior aside from a small mountain of paperwork!
