Great work!

 

isw this a real harrier seat from Neomega? was searching for one for some time... but could not find one.....

 

 

 

 

 

The Neomega seat is a late model jaguar seat with a different style headbox to that used on Harrier and IIRC has a few incorrect details such as an corrugated oxygen hose which was past of the pilots equipment not the seat.

Still not great, the headbox still does not look quite right for me  and  straps are  configured for post 1982  seats and look about 3 scale inches thick, and it still has the O2  pipe. They would probably done better if they had been produced without  straps at all. As it stands  I wont be rushing out to buy one of these.  I think the seats in the new kinetic  T bird are the best representation of the Harrier Mk 9 I have seen so far.
