Well that's a shame, but then I was never fond of giving that much money to someone with such a long lead time, no matter how good they MIGHT be. Especially now that I know that I may not get what I ordered at all and have no recourse to fix it.

I hope your post doesnt get you kicked off the forum, but helps get you the resolution you need!

The company needs to remember the old business adage. A happy customer will tell maybe 2 people. An unhappy customer will tell 10 people.

That doesn't bode well for them. Especially when it's from a respected member here, and a model maker to boot.

While I admire what they do, being that they use existing models then modify them, I have no problem discussing that the big companies Admiral, BBI, and now JSI should be making the P-51 B/C, and the FW-190A for all to have and afford.

I certainly trust pickelhaube. Very sad, not even an attempt by Skyworks to post his side of the story. I guess he doesn't care if he alienates us as his potential market.
