When a door opens in flight, the greater/higher pressure is most alway 

on the inside of the aircraft. In some high performance aircraft even 

with forward hinged doors traveling in excess of 200 mph, it is 

physically impossible to close the door while in flight. (remember 

Bernoulli?)

I had a door partially open on a warrior I was flying about a year ago.  We 

landed without incident and properly closed the door.  In flight, the door 

could not be closed or opened more to "slam" it shut.  It was kind of stuck 

ajar.  I do understand the greater interior pressure.  Just thinking.
