Posted for Billhogarty@aol.com:
As promised, I have attached photos of my oil door. Note that it is installed lengthwise over the oil filler, rather than across it. Photo #1 shows a top view of the cowling. Photo #2 shows the reverse side of the fiberglass cowling that has been reinforced with carbon fiber . Note that the wire release has been routed in a U-shape with the "pull" conveniently located in the left air inlet Photo #3 shows a closeup of the double latch release hardware. I have flown 50 hours with the oil door and it seems trouble free so far. (Wish I could say the same for the rest of the airplane) Happy Building. Bill H>
