THE LEGEND REBORN

HEART-POUNDING
PERFORMANCE

The turbocharged engine delivers a power-to-weight ratio that honors the original. Firewall the throttle, and you’re off the deck at 950 feet. The aggressive climb rate gets you to altitude quickly, where you can explore positive-G aerobatics, cruise at 180 knots, and loiter for more than 5-hours burning just 7.5 gallons per hour.

POWERFUL 
RELIABLE
UNSTOPPABLE

With fully automated digital engine controls (FADEC), the liquid-cooled, fuel-injected, turbocharged powerplant delivers peak performance from sea-level to FL180 at optimal fuel efficiency without the guesswork of managing fuel flow. You’ll have power when you demand it and 7.5 gallons per hour economy when you want it. And with a global service network, you’re always in range of support.

MODERN ENGINEERING
TIMELESS BEAUTY

Computer-aided design for improved handling, glass cockpit for maximum situational awareness, and carbon fiber construction put the power, strength, and agility of the legendary Mustang at your fingertips in a way that could never have been imagined in the 1940s – but the timeless silhouette says pure Mustang.

SAFETY
BY DESIGN

The SW-51 incorporates safety systems that the original never had. Fly with confidence knowing your Mustang has an all-electric landing gear with mechanical fail-safe, modern avionics, and a digital engine management system. A taxi camera improves your ground visibility and confirms gear extension, and there’s also an airframe parachute system for the ultimate peace-of-mind.

FINER POINTS

ScaleWings has painstakingly captured the essence of the P-51 by recreating every rivet, every panel line, and every screw head molded into the high-tech carbon fiber airframe. The signature sound of the radiator scoop and gunport flashes announces the SW-51 arrival. This attention to detail, the sight, and sound of the SW-51, puts the world’s most authentic tribute to the world’s most iconic aircraft within your grasp.
