Abstract
A door assembly for use in an aircraft providing standard and accessible operating modes. The assembly includes a partition wall movable between a first position and a second position, a sliding door including a first door portion and a second door portion, and a latch mechanism operable to couple the first and second door portions. In a first operating mode of the door assembly, the partition wall is maintained in the first position and the sliding door moves to an open state to form a first opening. In a second operating mode of the door assembly, the partition wall is moved from the first position to the second position and the sliding door moves to an open state to form a second opening different from the first opening.
