If you own a RV-10, then you know all the other door issues. My questions concern taxiing.
1. Is it safe to taxi with the doors open slightly? If so, do you hold onto the door handling while taxiing?
2. I?ve heard that some pilots taxi with the doors fully open. I would think that adds far to much stress to those 2 hinges at the top, and a gust could potentially take a door off. Also, the prop wash could stress the door hinges. Thoughts?
3. What do you guys do when taxiing and it is really hot?
