Dick,
We've never removed the doors on the Vixen (Series 5), but occasionally fly with
one or both doors open (opened/closed during flight). I have experienced no
problems and I do not exceed 90 MPH indicated with them open.
I also built a simple latching system that opens the bottom of the door about 1".
That provides an amazing amount of air flow in the cockpit and is a LOT more
peaceful than flying with the doors open. I can also fly at any speed with
them in this configuration. I probably should take some pictures of the latch
and post it here!
Travis :)
