Default Fokker DR1 scale details

Just finishing up my Balsa USA triplane, and adding some of the scale details to it. On the top wing, in the center, over the guns, is a tiny window/hatch/ thingamabob? Heres a pic of Mel, the famous scale builder/flier you all know, pointing to it on my DR1. Anybody know what it is exactly, it shows on most 3 views, I see it in a lot of period pictures. I don't see it on the underside of the wing, so thinking it must be a inspection hatch, maybe? Like on the Sopwith Pups, over the aileron pulleys??????? Duane
