Aircraft door latch arm rotation limiting device

A system for limiting rotation of an aircraft door latch arm, said system comprising:

• an aircraft door having a rotatable latch arm having a first position that locks the aircraft door closed, and a second position that allows the door to move to a partially opened position, and a third position that allows the door to be fully opened;
• a flexible strap having a proximal end and a distal end, said distal end having a securing element configured to be inserted through a loop eye on a cabin wall adjacent the aircraft door;
• a single elongate sleeve rotatably attached to the proximal end of the flexible strap such that the single elongate sleeve rotates relative to the proximal end of the flexible strap, said single elongate sleeve configured to be received over the rotatable latch arm of the aircraft door;
• a first receiving element disposed at a first position on the flexible strap intermediate the proximal end and the distal end of the flexible strap, said first receiving element releasably engaging the securing element on the distal end of the flexible strap when looped through the loop eye, wherein when the securing element is looped through the loop eye and engaged with the first receiving element with the single elongate sleeve received over the rotatable latch arm of the aircraft door, the flexible strap establishes a first predetermined looped strap length restricting rotation of the rotatable latch arm beyond the second position;
• and
• a second receiving element disposed at a second position on the flexible strap between the first receiving element and the proximal end on the flexible strap, releasably engaging the securing element on the distal end when looped through the loop eye, wherein when the securing element is looped through the loop eye and engaged with the second receiving element with the single elongate sleeve received over the rotatable latch arm of the aircraft door, the flexible strap establishes a second predetermined looped strap length preventing rotation of the rotatable latch arm beyond the first position.
