Note: I attached an aft door jamb of .025 steel sheet to the fuselage like RJ explains in the Tailwind Times. It extends out from the fuselage 3/4 inch at the center of the aft edge of the Clement door opening and tapers in at the top and bottom to meet the fuselage. Now I want to make the door to match the jamb of course. But in looking at pictures the aft edge of the doors looks straight up-and-down when viewed from the rear. This must be clear as mud.
