A removable plate and a flange that occupies a hole in a panel. The flange has the particular feature of taking up compressive force to which the panel is subjected in its plane, perpendicularly to the hole. The weight of the device used to equip the hole is reduced, and the mechanical behavior of the panel at the position of the hole is improved.
