    Lovely collection

    Because the Flight Data Recorder satisfactorily records the crews actions. The switches were put into the cut-off position by them being moved, the FDR records the switch position.

    Well said, as was @Alan P post. It is worth remembering that as forum members, we do have a responsibility about what we write here. Googles "AI" algorithms regularly pick up on information posted on this site and present it as "AI overview". Without specific engineering or flying knowledge, much of the discussion is wild speculation. In summary: Both fuel switches were moved to the off position immediately after take off - one pilot appears to recognise this. Both switches were left there for a couple of seconds before being moved back to the run position. The switches are certified to be safe from accidental movement. The two switches are independent of each other.

    Every control movement, switch position and button press is recorded by the flight data recorder.

    They definitely have a filters menu, but I agree it's not the best site! Edit: most the filter options have dropped off since I last used the site (which was last week!), not sure what's going on...

    Stunning!

    Fantastic results, did you airbrush the pledge? If so, what's your technique?

    Well that's a new aircraft to me!

    It appears to set the standard for how Harrier kits should assemble! Clearly vastly better than the Kinetic kit and certainly better than the Hasegawa kit.

    You misspelt AW149 😉

    More bad news for the NH90....

    https://www.keymodelworld.com/article/uma-model-148-av-8b-plus-harrier-ii Ive only just spotted this review. It also points out the fan diameter error - very frustrating. I wonder if the 3D printed part is closer to the correct size... It does seem that the fan blades on the 3D printed part are too straight, rather than curved aswell. The kit also comes with the wrong ejection seat - corrected with the 3D print.

    Lovely to see something a bit different

    Excellent!

    Superb!

    The wing kink looks slightly overdone, but it's not far off (the Hasegawa kit suffers the same issue!) Intakes certainly look a little too sharp. It does however come with an array of highly detailed weapons and nice touches like a refuelling probe that can either be in or out. Even with the corrected intakes, the complete UMA kit (which includes masks, PE and 3D printed decals) will cost around £100. The Hasegawa kit (circa £30), plus a load of Eduard weapons (as the kit doesn't include any) and an upgraded 3D printed intake fan (Hasegawas fan is a very poor rendition), plus masks, 3D printed cockpit decals and a PE ser, will cost at least the same.

    Frustratingly, it appears the decals and paint instructions are incorrect for the Battle of Britain Film aircraft.

    Excellent
