The auster door reminded me of this: Watching someone practicing low level aeros (decathlon); he enters a fairly low level bunt/outside loop - then hesitates an inverted 45deg down angle before bailing out positive. Everyone holds their breath, he misses the floor, makes a quick comment about the door over the radio.
Comes in quite gently, when he shuts down it takes a couple of people to pull the door out of the cabin where it's bashed his head into the opposite side door, complete with blood splatter and blocked the stick from going forward properly - the front top hinge failed, best as we could figure it had gone out to the strut, then smashed back in through the hole with some force. I'm still amazed he kept it together.
