Stewart S-51D
The Stewart S-51D Mustang is an all aluminum replica of the North American P51-D Mustang at approximately 70% scale.
Why Now?
After a labor of love, the owner realized he was spending more time in the 4-seat family airplane than in the Mustang. So the plane is available now to a new owner.
The Stewart 51 Kit
The Stewart 51 design started out some 20 years ago and as the plans progressed, the complete aircraft were making quite a splash at Oshkosh during this era. At the time it was the most accurate replica of the P51D available, and represented a quantum jump in complexity and performance over anything else available.
But today you cannot buy an S51 Kit as no one is producing them. So therefore, this is a rather special chance to own a rather special aircraft whose big brother held a memorial place in history.
