THUNDER BUILDERS' GROUP LLC

Scale replica of the classic P-51 Mustang fighter was originally produced by Papa 51 company which ceased trading on 1 December 2000. Group of 25 kitbuilders (six of them with almost complete aircraft) then formed Thunder Builder's Group LLC and acquired company's intellectual rights and production moulds with a view to sustaining their own projects and resuming manufacture. This seemed to have been achieved on 13 September 2001, when GUT Works reached agreement with Group; however, the two partners parted on 25 July 2002 when TBG again put the assets up for sale.
