What are the do's and don'ts when sealing the landing gear doors? (besides not sealing everything shut of course!)
In general, the more constructive approach is not to seal the gear
doors, but rather to seal the gear well off from the fuselage. Plug
all of the holes, and install flexible boots where push-pull tubes go
into the well.
When the gear well is properly sealed, there will be little if any
flow in and out from the gear doors, and no need to seal the doors
themselves.
Thanks, Bob K.
