Mickey’s initials were eventually included in the tail number of the plane, too, as N234MM, in 1967.

The newly repainted plane with updated wing edges and windows will be on view along with never-before-exhibited items from the aircraft’s interior, including a customized instrument panel originally located near Walt’s favorite onboard seat that allowed him to monitor flight conditions a telephone handset that gave Walt a direct line of communication to the pilot in the cockpit a flight bag featuring an image of Mickey Mouse sitting on the tail of the iconic plane and more. The exhibit will highlight the history of the plane-also known as “The Mouse”-and showcase its significance in The Walt Disney Company’s history. D23 and the Walt Disney Archives, along with D23 Expo Platinum sponsor Amazon, have restored the plane’s exterior for guests to see in a specially curated exhibit in the Arena of the Anaheim Convention Center called Mickey Mouse One: Walt’s Plane presented by Amazon. Walt Disney’s Grumman Gulfstream I plane is making a cross-country journey to Anaheim, California, where it will be on display for fans attending the sold-out D23 Expo 2022 presented by Visa from September 9 through 11.
