Doors off?

Post by CGNEE »

How many of you if any fly your Chiefs with the doors removed? is this even possible? it looks easy to remove them just not sure about flying without them. I really hope it's ok as i am looking forward to it. (in the spring when it warms up that is)

I,ve flown my KCA with the doors off. It gives you a little more room if the passenger puts his foot out on the wing strut. The doors even stow in the back above the baggage compartment.

Does anyone else fly Chiefs sans the doors? I was told back when we first got our Chief that you could not fly doors off. I would sure like to if it causes no problems.
