Abstract

A method for operating a cargo door of an aircraft includes opening the cargo door inwardly in relation to an opening by pivoting the cargo door to an open position adjacent a ceiling of a cargo space. The cargo door is supported by a door frame during opening of the cargo door. The method further includes moving the cargo door in relation to the door frame to a position wherein the opening is substantially free from the cargo door. The cargo door is supported by a support frame, moveable in relation to the door frame, during this movement.
