HartDeco Posted November 20, 2020 Author Share Posted November 20, 2020 7 minutes ago, NG899 said: Very nice indeed! Even better if... - The tank stencil decals were on the port side ONLY, irrespective of which wing the tank hangs under; the tank stencils were not 'handed', tanks could be fitted under either wing. - The correct AV-8A inboard pylons (on sprue P with the seats/fins/pylons, rather than those on Sprue D as fitted). The inboard pylons fitted are the incorrect Sea Harrier ones included from previous kits. Section 18 of the kit instructions correctly call out the pylon part numbers as P27-P28, P32-P33 but the drawings show the kinked leading edge SHAR pylons rather than the GR.1/GR.3/AV-8A ones... Doh. Harrier GR.1s/GR.3s and AV-8As had a single straight leading edge to the inboard pylons as did the T-birds. Only the Sea Harrier FRS.1 and FA.2 had the kinked leading edge to this pylon, the extra space inside the pylon enabled the extra cables needed for WE.177A 600lb MC bombs to be housed. On the FRS.1 the inboard pylons were fitted permanently to the wings due to the complexity of the wiring. I hope that helps other builders of this and the GR.1/GR.3 kits. Cheers Nick Thank you. Sounds like I made a few errors. Some of them can still be fixed l think. In my defence: I built it in 1 week. Not too much time to check if everything was 100% correct.

Orion Posted December 4, 2020 Share Posted December 4, 2020 Hello Rene, My compliments regarding your latest contribution. The construction and paint job are done to perfection. The introduction of the Harrier, left a large blood trail amongst the Harrier Marine Aviators. But in the end, the VSTOL community got the hang of it. Regards, Orion The Netherlands. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
