Sorry for my first response – thought you were referring to baggage door. Seems like it would be a major breakdown in flight management to miss all the cues with the gull wing door.
You’ve got all those latches and the door seal to take care of - do you use a check list?

Subject: [LML] Door
Has anyone had the fun of forgetting to properly latch the door and have it pop open on a IV/IVP/Propjet?
I haven't done so to date, but am curious if anyone knows the result.
I have had door open on Bonanza prior & was really no big deal other than noisy. Wondering if same on Lancair.
