Thunder, you wonder?

[Lowell]

With the growing anticipation of seeing what the newest Thunder Mustang might do in the Super Sport Class, here is a look back to some maybe forgotten early stepping stones to where we are now...

1996 2 months before prototype's first flight...






1998-4 months before first flight of first customer Thunder Mustang.




1999-a late night bath before leaving Nampa for Reno 1999.






all ready, but no racing in 2001 for N58EE

Hi Lowell, thanks again for all the great pictures.
I also wanted to post here that we expect a record attendance this year of 10 Thunder Mustangs at Reno. Our group is growing and will make this year even more fun.
Wishing the best success and our full support for George Giboney in Race 75 this year. Go kick some butt George

See ya all very soon ~ Solo

Blue II is not near ready for this year but they are making great progress and hope to have her flying for 09. We're all anxious to see her fly & put a smile back on John's face when he can race again.

I remeber seeing that green and white TM at the Watsonville fly-in in the late 1990s. Who owns that one now?

If it was the prototype, then that is N151TM. This aircraft was destroyed in a fatal accident.

Re: Thunder, you wonder?

Hi guys, this is my first post here.
I'm looking for cad drawings of the thunder mustang. I don't need a complete drawing with all nuts and bols and hoses, all i need is 3 view drawing, something like

but a bit detailed and definitely bigger.

Some more info from the past, thundermustang guys had some stuff on thir site back in 2001:

Also, there was a document called - CAD Profile Drawing (http://www.thundermustang.com/gutworks/CADSideview.pdf) but this link is not working.
But i think it contained only a sideview, not all views.


Maybe you have something in your archive?
Thank you in advance.
