Don't think it is a "B" rather a panel or some cover that looks like it. Simply look up the skin for one on Google.  :salute

If you look close there's also a 'C' just to the right of the 'B'

If you view the pic under a magnifying glass, tiny Latin script becomes visible.
It translates as: No wonder you don't have a girlfriend."

Tally ho old boys, I'm going to put the letter "B" in the metal of the typhoons in this screenshot I'm submitting to HTC.  Let's see who wastes a thread to talk about.  Bob's your uncle. Cherrio. 

I believe the quote above has your answer.

Well I had to look.  It's not a B.  It's an access panel, most likely a springloaded hand hold spot or something similar for the pilot or ground crew climbing up onto the wing.

The pilot at the front of the title screen is most definitely the better looking one    :aok

The nearest one was Kazaa Bruv, you were on his left wing, me and Micky on the right.  :rofl Besides, Zack1234 is the best looking in the squad. Ben1234 second.

Look at this site for some enlightening information. What your seeing in the AW screen are the hand and foot step self closing access doors, the B being the foot access and the upper left being the hand. The C is actually I believe the coolant fill cap access point. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hawker_Typhoon

Also the picture is a late war model with a 4 blade prop with a full tear drop canopy. The 1941 through 1943 had a car door access on the right hand side with an upward opening canopy hatch similar to the spitfire and also had a 3 blade prop.
