The Thunder Mustang          The extraordinary Thunder Mustang offers its owner a unique blend of speed, maneuverability and mystique.  Given the power to weight ratio, it outperforms the original North American P-51D fighter at a fraction of the cost.

The Falconer V-12 engine delivers the torque and the sound that turn low passes in to strafing runs. From the time you're pushed back in the seat by advancing the throttle for takeoff until you chop the power for landing, every flight is a form of high adventure, a rush, a journey into the twilight zone, a flight through rainbows in a clear sky.

 

Thunder Mustang kits are complete, containing everything from the spinner, prop and engine to the tail wheel, less your choice of instruments, avionics, paint and upholstery.  Each piece of the aircraft reflects professionalism in craftsmanship and technical achievement that sets a new standard for excellence.  Extensive prefabrication helps reduce construction time and eliminate hassles.  The complete use of carbon fiber in the structure produces incredible strength and light weight.
