| Two-seat light autogyro, first flown in 1962. Deliveries of production aircraft began in 1970 and by early 1972 a total of 83 had been built. Power was provided by a 180hp Lycoming O-360-A2D engine.
In 1974 Aero Resources took over production of the J-2 two-seat light autogyro from McCulloch Aircraft Corporation. The actual prototype J-2, designed by D.K.Jovanovich, first flew in June 1962. A version known as the Super J-2 was developed from the J-2, powered by a 180hp Lycoming O-360-A2D flat-four engine. M.Taylor "Jane's Encyclopedia of Aviation", 1989

In response to Richard T: I flew one, N4363G s/n 073, in the U.S. throughout the 1990's, and sold it to a gentleman in New Zealand. A record search shows that it has been sold there once again and is currently registered as ZK-RCK.

The PIMA AIR & SPACE MUSEUM in Tucson, Arizona has a very nice McCulloch J-2 on display in Hangar One.

My father owned this aircraft and I have logged flight time myself in this plane back in 1974. I am now 51 years old and retired from the Air Force as a Helicopter Mechanic. Looking for a job
