AlexB - please DO continue to ask questions - I am pleased to see you were not intimidated by some responses
I too, like 'Turn It Off', have asked about what I thought was an open panel on an aircraft - it wasn't - but I'm glad I asked. Since you began this thread I have explored pics of AB a/c (not my type) and can see what you were asking about. It has been added to my cranial database.
