The Jamieson J (also known as the Take 1) was a four-seat utility aircraft built in the United States in the early 1960s. It was designed and constructed by Jamieson Corp, which had been purchasing military surplus Culver Cadets and remanufacturing them for the civil market. The Model J was patterned closely on the Cadet, but was a larger and all-new aircraft. Like its forerunner it was a conventional, low wing cantilever monoplane, but featured retractable tricycle undercarriage.
Certification was achieved in July 1963, after which only another two examples were built before development was abandoned.
