Though an original member of the Aircraft Manufacturer's Association, the predecessor to today's Aerospace Industries Association, and the first company to produce all-metal fuselage planes for the US Navy and Army, their contribution to early aviation is a long forgotten part of that industry's history. Of local significance, Sturtevant was the first builder of aeroengines in Massachusetts and the only large scale aircraft manufacturer in the Boston area.

Use the links below to view this interesting chapter of Sturtevant as told through their two Boston subsidiaries; Sturtevant Manufacturing Co. (1910 - 1915) and the Sturtevant Aeroplane Co. (1915 - 1919).
