Today I completed the avionics access door. First I prepped and primed all the components, then riveted the hinge and shim strip along the bottom the opening. Then I installed the doubler ring and nutplates around the edge of the opening. Finally, I riveted the upper half of the hinge to the door itself, installed the door, and fastened it shut with eight Torx-bit screws.

I think it looks pretty nice!

There will be a bit of notching required at the top of the door where the baggage door hinge support goes, but that will be much later.
