Thanks for such a great video Stig! One thing I have been puzzling about, and still can't figure out, is how the 737NG cabin entry doors create an airtight seal. The mechanism seems extremely complex, especially with the door swinging outwards, and the bending top and bottom segments of the door. I just can't imagine how an airtight seal should be possible with a door that can fit through its frame. Like the A320, 777, and 787 families all have sliding doors that seem to seal with pressure and a gasket. It would be great if you could explain the 737NG doors in detail in a future video. My curiosity about it has been bugging me for a while now. 🤣

It’s simply a difference of design they all work the same way, all these doors are plug style, it’s the tapering of the door that allows it to move in and out of the cabin

Cool, Stig - so many differences between each design! Do you need metric tools for Airbus and imperial for Boeing maintenance?

All commercial aircraft use SAE standard tooling. There are a few exceptions with interior items such as trim and cosmetic components which can be metric. But over all most of the hardware and fasteners are SAE standard (imperial). Check my tool box video and you’ll see the tools I use. 👍

@Stig I am always surprised that the airline industry doesn’t warn passengers that wearing clothing with nylon material especially women wearing nylons will get a nasty burn if they ever had to use those slides because they are also made of nylon and nylon or nylon create quite heat friction. By the time they hit the bottom, they will definitely be running from an old retired guy. I hope this helps somebody.

So I have a really dumb question and will seem like I'm paranoid, but I don't ever worry about this kind of thing during flight, but is there some kind of safety long on these doors to keep a random passenger who might have a mental illness of sorts to keep from opening a door during flight? It's kind of silly but I will sometimes during the long flights to and from Tokyo as I sometimes wait for the bathroom to be unoccupied, I will open the shade from the door window to look out because I usually sit in an isle way seat during long flights so I can get up as needed. I don't have a window seat so I will look at that window sometimes to enjoy the view, but then I look at the door itself and imagine what if someone tried to open this because maybe someone is crazy. lol
@StigAviation
9 ай бұрын
If the aircraft is pressurized and flying at high altitudes, the door would be impossible to open, you would break that door handle before you open the door. So there’s no need to worry about that, and just as a precaution, always keep your seatbelt on when you’re seated.
@TheCAG1976

Ok. I was wondering about that. Might have been something fictitious, but I thought I've seen something somewhere about a crazy passenger opening a door mid flight. I plan to fly so many more times in my life, I hope I don't experience any turbulence so violent that the craft makes a bad enough drop that anyone standing hits the ceiling. I have seen aftermath videos of this. In 2020 when I took my first trip to see my fiancé, just girlfriend at the time, I was on an ANA Airlines flight to Tokyo and I sat there with my seatbelt unfastened, and the flight attendant politely requested I put the belt on. My thought was why do we need these fastened although I was not going to disobey the rules although for something like 10 minutes I sat with it unfastened. lol@@StigAviation

@@TheCAG1976 the incident that you were talking about was a very unusual one, the aircraft was pretty much about to land, and was almost completely unpressurized, the disturbed passenger stood up and opened one of the doors. The flight attendant should’ve been there, because that was a flight attendant Station, I don’t know exactly how that happened, but the good news is that they landed safely. In regards to turbulence, it doesn’t really bother me because I know the aircraft can handle severe turbulence. And as for seatbelts, I always have mine fastened no matter what. Even if I’m sitting, and there’s nothing happening, I always keep my seatbelt on.
