Oh ok that's interesting. I think we have one too on the point of the nose cone? If I remember, it had some insulating tape over it when we first got it from Roy

I am more interested in what is hidden behind those side panels... I agree on the apprearance though, its certainly not going to look right sat on the back of an older rig....

Still would certainly look good in black sat on the back of a nice shiny new Osprey ;-)
