1.1 DISTRIBUTION
These instructions are provided with each High Visibility Door Kit. Any
airworthiness of flight safety revisions will be immediately made available to all
affected High Visibility Door Kit owners.
1.2 REVISION
2.0 DESCRIPTION
The Aeronautical Accessories High Visibility Door Kit consists of replacement
doors that incorporate an expanded and bulged window which provides
additional visibility and shoulder room over the standard 407 doors and a
replacement fixed panel window. From a maintenance standpoint, the
Aeronautical Accessories High Visibility Door is a standard model 407 door that
has been modified to accept the expanded and bulged window, (approximate 4”
bulge). Existing door latches, hinges, and lock mechanisms are retained in the
standard locations, while passenger door handles have been relocated to
provide room for the expanded window.

HIGH VISIBILITY DOOR KIT Revision D
The High Visibility Door shall receive a Preflight check. Check for proper
operation of the High Visibility Doors, proper installation of hardware, seal
condition, fastener corrosion and/or damage (scratches, nicks, cracks, broken
glass).
NOTE
Removal of High Visibility Doors from helicopter is not required
for inspection. If any damage is noted during the Preflight
Check, refer to Section 3.3 Repair or Section 4.0
Troubleshooting Information. Ensure the damage limits
presented in Table 4 are not exceeded. Replace parts as
required.
1. Check windows for condition (i.e., clouding, crazing) and replace as required.
2. Check the High Visibility Doors for nicks, scratches, cracks, or hardware
corrosion.
NOTE
The indications of corrosion are 1) corrosion deposits (a white
or gray power on aluminum or rust colored deposits on steel),
2) pits in the aluminum or steel surface, 3) blisters, bulging or
flaking of protective coatings.
4. Check the door for proper operation (i.e., opening from inside and outside
aircraft, latching).
5. Sliding Door Only: Check Sliders, Brackets, and Tracks for condition and
security.

The Hinged High Visibility Doors shall receive an annual inspection consisting of
the following items:
2. Check the torque value (snug only, not to exceed 7 in-lbs.) on the attaching
hardware around the window assemblies and adjust as required.
3. Check door latches for simultaneous engagement during the opening,
closing and latching process. Adjust latch linkage as required.
4. Utilize the Inspection Record provided in Appendix A to document Inspection
completion.

3.3 REPAIR
NOTE
From a repair standpoint Aeronautical Accessories High
Visibility Doors are standard 407 doors that have been
modified to accept the expanded and bulged window. The
remaining door frame and all existing door latches, hinges, and
locking mechanism are retained in the standard locations and
should be repaired in accordance with the latest revision of the
Bell Helicopter Textron 407 Maintenance Manual
(BHT-407-MM). The door handle is also part of the original
door, but has been relocated and modified to provide room for
the expanded window. Repair of these items and the window
and added aluminum parts should be carried out in
accordance with this report.

2. After repair of the aluminum components, clean repaired area with isopropyl
alcohol and match existing finish.
Any dirt, sand, or debris should be cleaned from the High Visibility Door windows
and Fixed Panel Window using a mild, non-abrasive soap, such as Brillianize by
Norel Plastic, and clean particulate free water. Dry with a clean, damp chamois.
A soft tissue may be used, providing care is taken not to continue rubbing after
plastic is dry.

2. Remove and retain the existing hardware attaching the window. Carefully
remove the bead of sealant filling the gap around the window.
3. Obtain a 36-inch piece of .032 diameter safety wire. Work the safety wire
between the window and the door frame. Once the safety wire is in place, it
can be used as a saw to cut the adhesive tape surrounding the window (See
Figure 5).
CAUTION
DO NOT flex, pry, or otherwise cause any stress to the
window during this process, as cracking may occur as a
result.
4. Remove the window and use a plastic putty knife and lacquer thinner to
clean the adhesive tape and sealant off the door flange.
5. Clean the door flange to allow proper bonding of the double sided tape as
follows:
d. Rinse the area with cool water and towel off. Allow the area to air dry.

6. Clean the window edge to allow proper bonding of the double sided tape as
follows:
CAUTION
Do not use solvents such as acetone, benzene, carbon
tetrachloride, fire extinguisher fluid, dry cleaning
compounds, lacquer thinners, aliphatic naphtha, window
sprays or kitchen scouring compounds on the acrylic
plastic as permanent damage may result.
b. Lightly abrade the surface with fine sandpaper. Do not remove the
fiberglass edging surrounding the window.
c. Rinse the area with cool water and towel off. Allow the area to air dry.
7. Removal complete.
The installation of this window will require the procurement of 4949.75 Double
Sided Tape (135 inches for passenger door, 105 inches for litter door).
1. Carefully apply the Double Sided Tape by progressively peeling the covering
from one side of the tape and adhering it to the door flange where the
previously installed tape was located.
CAUTION
The double sided tape should be carefully placed as it is
difficult to remove once it is adhered.
2. Without removing the outer covering on the tape, position the High Visibility
Door Window into place on the door frame and insert spacers and screws
into two of the securing holes around the outer edge. With the window flush,
use a grease pencil or equivalent to mark lines on the window across to the
door frame, as shown in Figure 6. This will facilitate easy location of the
window onto the tape during final installation. Remove the screws and the
window.
