Pics are on the MTS website. Looks nice...just wish I had 550+ bucks to burn. Got a ME 163. Nice little piece, but it is little. Almost doesn't look like 1/18th. Must have been a really small plane.

Actually, the SkyWorks models listed at MTS are shown as Mk.XIVe (Mk.14), rather than Mk.IX (Mk.9):

At the SkyWorks site, itself, the page reads Mk14/18:

Pretty cool... Keep 'em coming, Jack and MTS!
