FP, it's not actually. Pop up panel very much there
Whilst at LHR my company took delivery of 767s. Factory to XXX to LHR. Aforementioned panel, mistaken on gnd for access panel (flush obviously) but not secure, so taped down whilst at XXX, and entered in techlog. Subsequent inspection at LHR would find tape torn and tattered, and requiring replacement!! Bit of 'investigation' revealed that hinged panel there for reason..... gear transition, hence tattered tape!! Can be seen, hatched in some cases, 2-3ft from fuse, longitudinal to span, very small. Locii rings a dim and distant bell from school days TD!!
Honest!
