I think it is a message for the French Air Force -

"If you can read this you are flying too close"

Seriously - it says something like 'To open, pull out handle and lift up"

An A340 mate will tell you soon, for sure.

'Please bang loudly on the side if your jacket is trapped in the hatch- pilot will land'.

I always wondered why the lady was holding her Union Jack knickers in her left hand?

As previously mentioned, it is the instructions for the opening and closing of the cargo door. Most a/c will have it, the 747 even has the instructions how to open the door 'manualy' if the electric power has failed.
