Papa 51 Mustang

|
DTI has purchased a complete Thunder Mustang kit from Papa 51 Ltd. Co. to build at the company's Hillsboro,
Oregon plant. The Thunder Mustang is a 3/4 scale kitplane developed with the performance of the original World War II North
American Aviation P-51D Mustang fighter in mind. The new Thunder Mustang outperforms the original fighter plane at lower
altitude in speed, climb, rate of roll, and turn radius.

A Thunder Mustang can be purchased at around $285,000, which includes the engine and propeller. This is significantly
lower than the price of a P-51D. Prices can exceed $1 million for the original fighter planes, not to mention up to $2,500
an hour operating costs.
