Of the total, 241 registrations are currently valid.
The fleet consists mainly of fixed-wing, single-engine aircraft. Production for these registered aircraft occurred primarily between 1973 and 2001. Half of the registered aircraft were built in 1992 or earlier. The engine distribution includes 154 turboprop engines and 90 reciprocating engines. Airworthiness classifications show that 218 aircraft are classified as restricted, six are experimental, and three hold multiple classifications.
Geographically, the registered Ayres aircraft are distributed across several states. California leads with 21 registrations, followed by Texas and North Dakota, which each have 19.
The most numerous registered Ayres models reflect specific production runs. The S2R-T34 is the most common variant, with 75 aircraft registered. These were built between 1978 and 1999 and feature a single seat. The S-2R follows with 45 registered aircraft, built from 1968 to 1997. The S2R-G6 and S2R-G10 each have 28 registered aircraft.

Type certificate data sheets (TCDS) provide the technical basis for these models. TCDS A3SW, held by Thrush Aircraft LLC, covers the S2R-T34 and S-2R models. TCDS A4SW, also held by Thrush Aircraft LLC, covers the S2R-G10 model. Each model has its own page with specifications and the type certificate data sheet, and every aircraft has a registration record by N-number.
