Front hinged, big over-centre spring. Would have blown mostly-shut. Little damage to be done although might have had some odd aerodynamic effects. Potable water and honey-wagon flaps are frequently left undone.

Standard call to ground crew for us goes....."Confirm all doors and hatches closed and secure...and all ground equipment removed from the aircraft..." but things still get missed!
