Narrative:The pilot reported that the upper half of the aircraft's cabin door separated in-flight. The incident occurred when the top front latch came loose during a pullout from an aerobatic manoeuvre. The slipstream then pulled the window outwards and it was torn off. The perspex window and door frame struck the lower surface of the right wing, causing substantial damage. The pilot was able to land at Archerfield without further incident.
