WACO 10 ASO N7091 The WACO 10 ASO N7091 plays a
significant role in the origins of Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University. T. Higbee Embry and John Paul Riddle created the Embry-Riddle Company at Lunken Field outside Cincinnati on December 17, 1925, 22 years after the Wright Brothers’ historic first flight. The company’s mission was to promote aviation, captured in its slogan: “If it’s flying, we do it; if it’s airplanes, we have them.” The company quickly became involved in many areas of early aviation, from selling aircraft and offering aerial photography to carrying mail, transporting passengers and providing flight training. The company also served as a distributor for WACO aircraft, operating many of them in its training fleet and for other commercial purposes.
