Tom Otis Yorba Linda, CA | I aquired a J2 in 1966.It was all thereand been disassembled
many years before that. I fabricated new seats and floor board
for it.Unfortunatley,the seat assembly was damaged beyond repair in a flood at Corona,CA airport.Worse,somebody thought it was junk and stole it.My problem now is the missing metal
seat backs and seat pans.Can anybody out there offer some help
me with this problem?

Randy Minnick Porterville, CA | Anyone neededing information about the J2 may call "DelAir" (located at KPTV Porterville Municipal Airport) in Porterville, CA. Harry Dellicker just did a complete bones out resto on a beautiful 1935 (but certificated in 1936) J-2 serial #934 - Reg #17277. The engine on this one is Continental A40-5 with the dual ignition. 07/23/2007 @ 16:10 [ref: 17251] |

Jack Main Norfolk, VA | In 1945, 5 of us went together and bought a Taylor J-2, tail number NC 16992. It had belonged to George Stathers, a CAA inspector in Roanoke, Virginia's Woodrum Field. We spent many fun filed flying hours tooling around Virginia. We charged ourselves $1.25 per hour to pay for maintenance and refilled the tank after every flight. This usually ran less than $2.00. You couldn't beat the price although it was rather disconcerting to see trucks on the highway pulling ahead of you! I wonder if this plane would qualify as an ultralight nowadays? 04/17/2007 @ 07:34 [ref: 16205] |
Rollie Hartenfeld Bellevue, OH | Been flying the J-2 most of the spring and summer now, its the more fun then anything I have flown to date. Took it to Lock Haven this year, we had 6 J-2's there. Found out this one has had the wrong prop sence '47......Have a new one ordered now....... 09/11/2005 @ 17:54 [ref: 11203] |
Allan Farr New Plymouth, New Zealand., NE | My father owns a J2 Cub here in NZ. It's the 40hp model - in bits at the moment.
P.S. New Zealand isn't in Nebraska of course, but the parochial website requires me to put in an american state. 07/15/2005 @ 18:42 [ref: 10766] |
