Narrative:
After landing, maintenance notified us one of the right main gear doors was missing and separated from the aircraft. Callback conversation with reporter revealed the following information: the reporter stated the landing gear was extended below the speed limits for extension. The landing gear door recently had a service bulletin accomplished where 4 bolts were replaced and maintenance said one bolt had failed. This entire door except for the hinges and fasteners is a composite structure.
