P-51 Gunfighter is a D-Model Mustang and one of the less than 150 of the nearly 8,000 D-models that were built during the war that still exist today. During the History Restored Tour, visitors of all ages are invited to step inside DOC and get up close to Gunfighter, explore history, and meet the volunteers who keep these two warbirds flying.
