Built by Mr. B. Rogers in 1996. The fuselage was from a P-51D with a P-51H vertical fin installed. The wings and horizontal stabilizers were from a Learjet Model 23. The engine was a Griffith with contra rotating props. On 18 September 1999 at the Reno National Air Races during the first lap of the Unlimited Class final race it crashed, fatally injuring the pilot. The crash appeared to have been caused by flutter which caused separation of the empennage from the fuselage.
