Often, the discovery of a long-forgotten airplane is accompanied by a lingering, unanswerable question: How did it get there and when? Not so with the Curtiss Pusher featured at EAA AirVenture Oshkosh 2016: It was found in the attic of a mansion belonging to the Sturtevants, a highly successful manufacturing family dating back to the 1800s that is still in business today. Many in the family knew that the airplane was in the attic because it had been purchased new by one of their ancestors in 1909. Read more about it in the December issue of EAA Sport Aviation
