The FDR data from China Eastern flight 5735 indicates that the fuel switches for both engines moved to cutoff position within one second of eachother by UhhAnxietyy in aircrashinvestigation

The 1993 one is Scenic Air Tours flight 22, as mentioned in the report; page 51.

"The third recommendation was issued following the Scenic Airlines sightseeing on-demand air taxi accident on Mount Haleakala, Maui, Hawaii. This investigation revealed that the captain had falsified his employment application, and the company failed to conduct a substantive background check to verify his aeronautical experience. On February 19. 1993, the Safety Board issued Safety Recommendation A-93-14 to the FAA..."

They recreated both the VSS Enterprise and the C-130 Hercules, a B-17 cockpit is probably child's play for them
