The Mustang Aeronautics Mustang II is a two-seat aerobatic sports airplane developed and marketed in the United States for homebuilding.[2][3][4]

Design and development

Robert Bushby acquired the rights to the Long Midget Mustang in 1959 and four years later began development of a two-seat, side-by-side version. This eventually flew in 1966 and plans were made available soon thereafter.[5] Rights to both the Midget Mustang and the Mustang II were sold to Mustang Aeronautics in 1992. [6]

A single engine in tractor configuration airplane, the Mustang II features cantilever low-wing, two-seats-in-side-by-side configuration enclosed cockpit under a bubble canopy, fixed conventional landing gear, or, optionally, tricycle landing gear.[3][4]

The aircraft is made from riveted sheet aluminum with a rounded turtle deck and flat sides and bottom skins.[7] Its {{convert|24.2|ft|m|1|abbr=on}} span wing employs a NACA 64A212 airfoil at the wing root, transitioning to a NACA 64A210 at the wingtip. Standard engines used include the {{convert|150|to|160|hp|kW|0|abbr=on}} Lycoming O-320, the {{convert|180|hp|kW|0|abbr=on}} Lycoming O-360 and the fuel-injected {{convert|200|hp|kW|0|abbr=on}} Lycoming IO-360 four-stroke powerplants.[3][8] Standard fuel capacity is 25 US gallons, but optional wet wings increase the fuel capacity to 61 US gallons.[9] Several other fuel tank options are available.[10] A folding wing option may be installed.[11]
