Wondering if anyone can help me with this. I can find nothing in the instructions about this hole on the upper fuselage. The hole appears in the instructions, but there is no indication of what, if anything, goes in there. Radio aerial? Potted plant? R2D2? I'm stumped.

Should be a grill over it if I remember correctly. Have a look at some walk-rounds and I will have a look at my references tomorrow as I am about to go to bed.

If it's a potted plant, it would have to be SPEEDWELL   or  QUICKTHORN. But this is Whiffworld, so you may fit any frill, furbelow, greeble or whatsit that you fancy and apply Kit's second law (also known as Rheged's hypothesis) to the backstory.

Forgot about this, just did a quick search for Bae Hawk Drawings and found this



It's as I thought, an exhaust.

Thanks, wasn't sure whether to fill it or not. I guess the answer is 'not.'  :thumbsup:
