A jettisonable door system for an aircraft, with an upper hinge having a forward portion hingedly coupled to an airframe and an aft portion releasably secured to an upper outboard plate with an upper pin, a lower hinge having a forward portion hingedly coupled to the airframe and an aft portion releasably secured to a lower outboard plate with a lower pin, a handle operably associated with one of the pins, and a wire operably associated with the handle and the other of the pins, such that the rotation of the handle causes both pins to rotate. A rotation of the upper pin releases the upper hinge from the upper outboard plate and a rotation of the lower pin releases the lower hinge from the lower outboard plate.
