All the wing fueling station panels I've come across are hinged at the front, so in theory they will be held shut by the forward airflow. BUT when reverse thrust is applied, thats when dammage will proberbly occur. As for the flaps tearing them off, I'm not sure. The ones I've seen come mighty close so I won't risk flap operation with one open!!
