A landing gear door system for a landing gear compartment includes a door pivotable about a pivot pin configured for disposition in a longitudinal direction on an airframe, and a mechanism configured to rotate the door about the pivot pin between a closed position, in which an outer surface of the door panel is configured to provide aerodynamic continuity with an outer aircraft skin of the airframe, and an open position, in which the door is rotated into the landing gear compartment and an opening is exposed. The door has a door panel rigidly connected with an arm such that the door panel and arm generally form a V-shape as viewed in the longitudinal direction.
