Allied Aircraft Corp A-2 / TJ-2
![]() A-2
The A-2 was an original design by the Allied Aircraft Corporation and the first prototype (NX3153K) first flew on 9 April 1948 under the power of a 145hp Continental C145-2 engine.
It was followed by a second prototype (which was destroyed in a hangar fire) and a third example was not completed and development was then shelved.
NX3153K was later extensively modified (possibly around 1970) by Mr. Thomas J. Ballentine who amongst others installed a 210hp Continental IO-360 and it was renamed as TJ-2 and registered N312TJ.
