|
Originally
designated 'Taylorcraft Auster Mk.V Series J/1 Autocrat', but later shortened to simply 'Auster J/1 Autocrat'. |
J/1A
Autocrat | Some J/1
Autocrats temporarily modified into 4-seaters by fitting a bench-type rear seat. | J/1B Aiglet | J/1 Autocrat with enlarged fin and rudder.
130 h.p. de Havilland Gipsy Major 1 powerplant. | J/1N Alpha | Initially conversions
of J/1 Autocrats fitted with the 130 h.p. de Havilland Gipsy Major 1 powerplant. | | Later, new aircraft were built to the same standard. | J/1U Workmaster |
Agricultural development of J/1N with J/5R mainplane, J/5F ailerons and dorsal fin. 180 h.p. Lycoming
O-360-A1A powerplant. | J/1W | Tourer version of J/1U. |
Non-Auster Produced Variants
J/1BL Aiglet |
J/1B converted to take 150 h.p. Lycoming 0-320 powerplant and other improvement, including better
seating and | | sound-proofing. Also known as
the Kingsford Smith Kingsmith. | J/1S | J/1 Autocrat converted with 145 h.p. de Havilland
Gipsy Major 10 Mk.2-2 powerplant. The conversion was done in Kenya, the | | Model number being issued by Auster’s to clear the aircraft through its certification. [7] |
J/1Y |
J/1 converted to take 150 h.p. Lycoming 0-320 powerplant and featuring an extended dorsal fin.
| | Separately, the Auster designation J/1Y was
a 1959 project for aircraft updated with the Lycoming engine using Auster | | supplied conversion kits. Per Preston and Ames [7], this conversion scheme came to nothing, so presumably
these | | conversions were not from Auster supplied
kits but still used the intended designation. | J/1 Kingsland | J/1 converted
to take 100 h.p. R-R Continental 0-200-A powerplant and fitted with AOP.6 wings. |

Notes The Blackburn Aircraft Ltd. obtained a Mk.V airframe from Auster in exchange for a Cirrus
Minor 2 engine, and they did their own installation. It differed from the Auster prototype in that it retained the extended
perspex canopy and side windows of the Mk.V. Blackburn’s used the resultant aircraft for development flying of the Cirrus
engine. C/ns 2638 and 2639 were alloted serials G-AJXK and 'XL, but are believed not built.
The serials were reallocated.
