Timm Aerocraft 2AS
The Aerocraft 2AS of 1938 was a Kinner B-2R Sportwing modified to satisfy USAAC’s requirements for a two-place primary trainer. Orders were not placed, but went to the Fairchild PT-19 instead.
Only the one prototype was built, NC14965 c/n 230.
Timm S-160-K / PT-160K / PT-175K / N2T Tutor / PT-220
Under the trade name Aeromold, the Timm Aircraft Corporation developed a special form of construction using bonded plywood. To validate the new structural medium and ultimately to provide a commercial outlet, the company produced its private-venture S-160 / PT-160K (747) cantilever low-wing trainer with tandem accommodation in open cockpits and fixed tailwheel landing gear whose main units looked very spartan with their unfaired tubular metal legs. Designed by Otto Timm the sole S-160, NX15593, had an optional cockpit canopy.
Don Mitchell went to the new Timm Aircraft factory in Van Nuys, where he helped with the molding of the fuselage of the S-160, a plastic-bonded wood basic trainer developed for use by the U.S. Navy and U.S. Army Air Corps. Mitchell later assisted the Civil Aeronautics Administration when the time came to perform the static tests of the aircraft. It passed with flying colours and later became, in April 1941, one of the first if not the very first ever plastic-bonded aircraft to receive an American Approved Type Certificate.
This prototype was developed into the PT-175K (750 2-573) for the civil market, and 262 of a modified variant with the Continental R-670 radial engine were ordered by the US Navy with the designation N2T-1, the aircraft being delivered in three batches during the course of 1943. The one prototype was NX15593 and 262 to the USN as N2T-1 were 41-05875 & 41-05876, 41-32387-32636, and 41-39182-39191.
The USAAF operated them as PT-220.

Timm Monoplane
The Timm Monoplane was built in the early 1900s and described only as this with an OX-5 engine. One was built, registered N1782.
Timm Eindecker 1
Heinrich Timm, owner of a sawmill in Kummer near Ludwigslust, built two monoplanes. The first in 1912, and an improved model in 1913. Both of them flew. An earlier doppeldecker was not completed. The latter eindecker, something of a Taube-Blériot hybrid, was flown regularly until WWI, although Timm did not have a flying licence until, after joining the German flying corps, passed his “Feldpilotenprüfung” in 1915. Timm, born in 1885, died in the winter of 1917, having succumbed from severe burns suffered in a crash landing.
