McCulloch Aircraft Corporation

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The McCulloch Aircraft Corporation was the aircraft division of the McCulloch Motors Corporation. McCulloch acquired Helicopter Engineering Research Corp in 1951. It manufactured two innovative helicopter designs – the tandem-rotor MC-4 and the J-2 autogyro.

Rights to the twin-rotor MC-4 was sold back to the original designer, Drago Jovanovich, in 1957. Rights to the J-2 autogyro were sold to Aero Resources (Gardena, California) in 1974.
