Quoted as a Model E with a composite hull.
MSN I-35. Burgess Company and Curtis Model I Scout. Ordered Jun 19, 1912, delivered
Jan 20, 1913. Army flight instruction at Palm Beach, FL, then shipped to Manila, Philippine
Islands for scouting duty based at Corregidor. Served with the U.S. Army Coast Artillery units
based in and around Manila Bay. Equipped for two way radio communications, the
first such operational deployment in the U.S. Army. Aborted takeoff and wrecked
off Corregidor Jan 12, 1915. Pilot OK.
MSN J-36. Burgess Company and Curtis Model J Scout. Wright Model C type. Ordered 1912.
Delivered Jan 1913. On March 5, 1913 the Model J Scout #18 was assigned to Company A, First
Aero Squadron (the first air combat unit in the U.S. Army) at Texas City, TX. The Model J was
assigned to Lt. Moss L. Love who had learned to fly in the Philippines. Lt. Love and the Model J were
transferred to the Signal Corps Aviation School at North Island in San Diego, CA on June 6, 1913.
On September 4, 1913 Love was the tenth Army officer to lose his life in an aeroplane accident
when flying the Model J (Wright C Type) #18 attempting to qualify for his Military
Aviator Rating. He climbed to 2,000 feet and was descending in slow glide downward in a wide
turning pattern when at 300 feet he put on power but apparently stalled and dove straight into
the ground. This sequence of events was a Wright C characteristic that the
Army argued was a fault of the plane; with the Wright Company, who had the most to
lose, arguing it was the inadequate aviator training procedures. This and previous similar
accidents lead to the elimination of all Wright and Curtiss type pusher aircraft in the U.S. Army.
Love Field in Dallas, TX, a World War I airfield, and now a municipal airport was named for
Lt. Moss L. Love, U.S.A.
Decommissioned 2/24/1914

Martin Company Model T. Two-seat training biplane
Burgess-Dunne Model BD-3, built under licence by Burgess Company
Ordered Mar 1913. Delivered Dec 30, 1914 to San Diego, CA. In the spring
of 1915 the floats were removed and wheels installed then
assigned to U.S. Army Coast Artillery for fire control support.
Dropped from inventory Oct 18, 1916.
Martin Company Model TT. Two-seat training biplane
Burgess Company Army Tractor Trainer. Tractor biplane designed by Grover Loening and Lt.
DeWitt Milling of the Army Aviation School at San Diego, CA built by Burgess Company to
U.S. Army design specifications. Ordered 9an 9, 1915. Delivered March 3, 1915.
Shipped to the Army Aviation School at San Diego it was accepted on March 31, 1915.
Its flight testing determined that it had ample power, the climb rate and range were good,
and it was stable directionally. The Curtiss Model S engine however was troublesome and the
aircraft tests had identified a number of negative characteristics: poor lateral control,
the rudder was too sensitive, and it was tail heavy with power on and nosed into a dive
with power off. The trainer was ultimately condemned and sold on September 18, 1916.
41/44, 48 later fitted with JN-3 wings.
41 wrecked in night landing Pearson, NM Mar 19, 1916. Salvaged for parts

Martin Company Model TT. Two-seat training biplane
Martin Company Model S. The Model S was 23-year-old Donald Douglas's first and
only design for the Martin company, and it set three world altitude records and
a flight duration record that stood for three years. Assigned to the first U.S. aviation
unit based overseas, the 1st Company, 2nd Aero Squadron at Fort Mills, Corregidor,
in March and April 1916, where they used a radio transmitter with a range of 29 miles
to adjust battery fire for the Coast Artillery.
56 destroyed 6/26/1916.
Based on JN-3 and fitted with OX-2 engine.
Sturtevant Aeroplane Company Model S-2 advanced tractor trainer landplanes. Order cancelled

Sturtevant Aeroplane Company Model S-2 advanced tractor trainer landplanes
S.C. 110 Ordered Jul16. First flight 18Sep16.
These two aircraft were sent in 1916 to the Signal Corps Aviation School in San
Diego, CA. They were transferred in early 1917 to the 1st Aero Squadron at Columbus,
NM to reinforce the observation and reconnaissance capabilities
of the U.S. Army’s campaign in Mexico. The cross border incursion was in
reaction to the March 9, 1916 attack by the troops of Mexican revolutionary Francisco
(Pancho) Villa on the then defense-less border town of Columbus where
9 American civilians and 8 U.S. soldiers were killed. The pacification campaign
in Northern Mexico continued through the spring of 1917 right up to the United
States’ entry into WW1.
116 delivered to Langley Field Sep 1917. To McCook Field for testing.
Flown until the structure gave away.
117 delivered to Langley Field Nov 1917. To McCook Field for testing.
Crashed soon after taking off on its first flight, killing the pilot.
Third prototype cancelled before completion, but was built and
put in storage. Discovered in 1961 and restored and put on
display at Old Rhinebeck Aerodrome, NY.
Contract cancelled
Sturtevant Aeroplane Company Model S-4 tractor landplanes. Ordered Jan 1917
Burgess-Dunne Model BD-10, built under licence by Burgess Company
Special BD Model planned to be used for remote controlled torpedo experiments
developed by John Hays Hammond of Gloucester. Ordered September 27, 1916.
Order cancelled on June 18, 1917. The mission was eventually accomplished
by the assignment of an Army Curtiss R-4
Sturtevant Aeroplane Company Model S-4 tractor landplanes. Ordered Jan 1917.

Burgess Company Model BP Trainer. Ordered 1Nov 1916. First flight Feb 1917.
Delivered May 1917 to Oct 1917 to Mineola, NY. These aircraft did not pass Army
acceptance testing and were used as static aircraft for Army mechanics and aviator ground
schools. Problems stated were stiff controls and poor visibility for the instructor
and student aviator. It was also reported that the Commanding Officer at Mineola didn’t
think the Model BP was sturdy enough to be stress tested in the air. Interesting considering
the company’s reputation for strongly built and rugged construction and the fact there was no
known accident caused by a Burgess’s aircraft structural failure.
Sturtevant Aeroplane Company Model B-2 sesquiplane tractor. All but 277 cancelled.
Flight testing by Tex Millman at Squantum on March 20, 1917 resulted in a crash due
to flight instability and loss of rudder control at an altitude of 100 feet. The aircraft was
destroyed although it was recognized by the Army observers that the steel frame construction
of the aircraft saved the pilot’s life. Tex Millman escaped with minor injuries.
The order for three additional pursuit aircraft was cancelled.
Martin Model TT. Two-seat training biplane.
Burgess Company Model Twin Hydro. Ordered Dec 4, 1916
332 first flight Aug 1, 1917. Delivered Aug 1917.
First twin hydro was accepted by the U.S. Army in August and as a result of a an ongoing
review of the Army aviation the coastal defense mission had changed resulting in the
cancellation of the 31 remaining twin hydros. The single aircraft that was completed
was transferred to the U.S. Navy at the submarine base at New London, CT where it was
used for anti-submarine warfare tests.
333/363 were cancelled.
All but 364 cancelled.
