Produced by North American Aviation beginning in 1940, the P-51 Mustang is a long-range, single-engine fighter, which proved invaluable to the Allied Powers during World War II, the Korean War, and other conflicts. Boasting a powerful engine with mighty cannons, its superb handling, performance, firepower, and long-range capabilities proved to be invaluable in changing the course of the Wars.
Like many WWII era warbirds, the story of 44-12852 did not end in 1945. After flying - and crashing - in the 1946 Cleveland National Air Races, she was taken apart, crudely reassembled as a trainer, changed identities, sold and resold many times over. Today, this mighty Mustang, now known as "Frenesi", soars through the skies, performing in air shows all over the world.
In the 1950s, she entered active military service again, flying with the Dominican Republic Air Force under Coronel Rafael Diaz Bonilla - known as "El Diablo Rojo" (The Red Devil). Known then as FAD 1900, she was part of the last squadron of combat ready Mustangs in the world.
The authentic P-51 fuselage skins were removed during the restoration of 44-12852 and were used as patterns for the new skins to keep the aircraft flying over the years. We received these from Aero Trader in Chino, California, giving us the opportunity to add this historical authentic aircraft skin to our encyclopedia of aviation history.

*Important Notice – Please Read Carefully
PlaneTags are made from actual retired aircraft fuselage, not merely stamped metal. Because PlaneTags are made from real fuselage, each PlaneTag bears the color, thickness, and wear and tear from the portion of the fuselage from which it was cut and it is therefore rare to create two identical PlaneTags. These variations and imperfections are not product flaws. They are part of the beauty of PlaneTags. As a result, you will not have an option to select the color of your PlaneTag. The images on this website are provided for reference only and should not be used as the sole basis for choosing a particular PlaneTag.

I like the product,,but it is over priced.
Very good product. I received one with rivet holes. Great piece with extra character.
Great product - Size & authentic piece of History
Good. Kind of pricy though. I probably can’t afford any more on my budget.
Fantastic item. Well made. Our friend loved it
My grandfather was an aviator and is an historical aviation enthusiast. Greatly appreciated that I could pass on this piece of history to him and myself.
The P-51 is a jawdropper at airshows and it's nice to finally own a tag of one.
Great company…wonderful product..always looking forward to new release.

This one of my most cherished tags, I'm honored that I was able to secure a rivet version. I love all of them and display them proudly.
