Abstract
In order to simplify the connection of a door to the outer envelope of an aircraft cell, it is provided to dispose the door into a portion of the outer envelope having tilted sides, as is the case at the nose cones and the tail cones of conventional airplanes, and in various portions of blended wing body airplanes and flying wings. Thus, the door can be configured to displace, in rectilinear translation, from one of its extreme opening and closing positions to the other, without requiring that the door protrudes outside of the outer envelope in the closing position.
