Hi Mark,

I have a couple of shots I took of the Imperial War Museums Camel in London, that I think shows what you're after... (square access panel covered with see throgh on the leading edge?).

I can't access my image storage to post them at the momnet, but if you PM me with your mail, I can send throgh a couple of JPGs.

Best Regards

Mikael

Thanks again Stephen. I saved them on my favorites and will come in handy. I recently picked up a mint Revell 1/28 Camel for peanuts at a garage sale.
