The Midget Mustang, originally developed by David Long in 1948, is a single-seat, low-wing, cantilever monoplane made primarily from 2024-T3 aluminum. Initially designed for air racing, this plane gained popularity for its excellent aerobatic capabilities and desirable flight characteristics. The design and production rights were acquired by Robert Bushby in 1959, who continued to sell plans and kits until Mustang Aeronautics took over in 1992. Key specifications of the Midget Mustang include a wingspan of 18 feet 6 inches, a length of 16 feet 5 inches, and a maximum speed of 225 mph. It can climb at a rate of 2,200 feet per minute and has a service ceiling of 19,000 feet. The aircraft is typically powered by a Lycoming O-290 engine, producing around 135 horsepower​. The Midget Mustang is well-regarded for its all-metal construction, which contributes to its sleek appearance and structural integrity. It's also known for its versatility in modifications, such as the addition of tricycle landing gear or manually retracted landing gear in some variants​.
