Abstract

In order to simplify the kinematics involved in opening an aircraft door, a plurality of mobile stop members is provided at the periphery of the door, these being intended to press against complementary stop arrangement provided on the door frame. A door control device is configured to bring the door from its closed position into a set-back intermediate position by moving it towards the interior of the compartment, and a stop arrangement control device is configured to allow the mobile stop members to be moved, when the door is occupying its set-back intermediate position, from a deployed locking position to a retracted unlocking position, allowing the door to be moved outward through the opening in the fuselage.
