So,

All planes I have own and flown has this happen, the hatch, door, latch
finds a way to open on it's own.  2 certified, 1 experimental.

I have often carried a bungee to hold it from unlatching.

I own a kr I have never flown.  I will be needing a really safe can't
wiggle loose solution..

My others fly just fine with an unlatched door/hatch/whatever.  The wind
holds it closed.
