Looking for input on B3 specs.....cheeks or no cheeks, sliding door or no slider ?

For flexibility - Cheeks both sides, right for gear left in case the extra tank is required. Sliding door left for sure, right if you do much filming. Cheeks will slow you down a bit, maybe 10nmph.

Slider on left makes life easier for crew, gear loading /unloading, scanning, photos in flight etc. Nice on a hot day too!

B3 is nice to fly, never have a problem at max internal gross weight.

Good Luck and H.N.Y.

It really depends what you are looking to do with this aircraft! Sliding doors are a pain in the ***, as well can be a maintenance nightmare! In my experience go with regular doors and two extended cheeks, this gives you internal volume, if you need more, put a basket on one or both sides!
