| Russell B. Turner Centerville, GA | The assets of the McCullough J2 operation were, I believed, transferred to a company called Aero Resources in Garden City, California or somewhere in California.I am beginning to research the aircraft since I have an interest in seeing this aircraft back in production. I would appreciate meeting like minded persons and anyone who owns and flys the aircraft regularly. Each one I have found in sthe past had little time on the engine but was over 20 years and was being marketed as if the engine were a new one. I would like to find one or more that are being marketed realistically for use not for collecting or holding for possible appreciation. I am also interested in hearing from pilots using the newer Xenon gyroplane import. Send information by email to tap1940@cox.net or by mail to the Perry, Georgia (PXE) airport for my attention.

| Tom Lease Dallas, TX | I know there is a J2 owner that will be very happy to read this, just need to find him/her! I have a brand new J2 spin up transmission made by Hughes aircraft. It is in the heavy bag and in the woodedn box made by Hughes Aircraft. I got it when I bought a Hughes 269, and thought I might get a J2 in the future, and knew it would be valuable to have because it was a needed componant that cound not be found. We are having a baby next month and have developed some complications that are giving us additional expenses. Therefore, future toy ideas have to go for now. If you are interested in this and either need it now, or are smart enough to realize it is a much need spare to keep your J2 running, give me a call or e-mail me.

| Brian Brown San Diego, CA | Hello,
My name is Brian and I was just searching the internet in find of a McCulloch J2 and came across your website. I was hoping you could help me out with some information. I am currently a student at Miramar College studying for my A&P certificate and have been given a project regarding the McCulloch J2 propellar design. My project in a nut shell consist of me finding a prop that is comparable to the J2 prop, simulating that the prop for the J2 is no longer in service or being manufactured. I am instructed to find and convince the FAA of an approved propellar to take its place. Any help or information regarding type certificate, blade design, or maybe even a good mechanics word would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance for your time.

| Judy Whelan Lake Havasu City, AZ | I am active in working on Havasu's first museum, the Museum of History. I am currently designing the exhibit on the Early Days of the City and will be displaying a nice model of McCulloch's J2 gyroplane and the original booklet.
I would appreciate any info you can give me on such things as the number that were built and dates and the reasons they were not a commercial success. Thank you, Judy 05/18/2007 @ 14:00 [ref: 16513] |
