Background
Over 100 years ago, Glenn L. Martin established the Glenn L. Martin Company after building his first plane in a rented church, where he took on a risky but innovative new aircraft design at the urging of Orville Wright. In 1912, Allan and Malcolm Lockheed founded the Alco Hydro-Aeroplane Company, while working out of a garage, and later renamed the Lockheed Aircraft Company.
