Sure as hell it isn't anything to do with Hawkers - with that sort of finish!

Sponson on SH3 or Lynx helicopters?

The symbol is used for positioning trestles or supports during maintenance?

it also looks hinged
I think that might be where the wing is bolted on to the airframe rather than a hinge, although other than that I'm stumped!

I thought about the Lynx too. There is a photo of one with a platform on the port side with a gun mounted, but its from earlier, later photos don't have the platform, just a bracket (a fairly substancial braket).

I thought the finish was a little shabby too, I don't think it has a particularly high airspeed with all of those slotted screws! :lol: However, the hinge has me baffled. :think: HELP
