I need to add another doubler on the top right by the door jamb/window area on top. I am not satisfied with the single doubler under the inside skin.
I am following the instructions from the 100 Series Cessna Manual in a flush patch repair.

Slowly chipping away at this door in between re-skinning a horizontal and installing an ELT in other planes.

Re: Repairing door cracks
Well, that took a while. Got this project done a week or two ago. Been flying again. I didn't dig as deep into the passenger door but I am pretty sure it has some cracks too. Next time.
Here's the final product.
