				Hi All,
 
 I found this recent document on the US NTSB website.
 
 It seems Liberty has had a few (6) A/C lose doors in flight, just like
 the early Europas (at least I have not heard of a door flying off
 in flight in several years).
 
 These episodes,the NTSB says were all apparently due to improper
 shoot bolt deployment into the rear socket and failure to check
 by crew.
 
 Since the Europa latch system is quite similar, we may have a lesson
 to learn here at someone else's expense!
 
 Does anyone have any comment?
