The ST-M/2 is part of the Ryan ST series of low-wing monoplane aircraft, produced by RYAN Aeronautical. This aircraft was designed as a two-seat trainer and popular sport aircraft, serving various flying schools and militaries globally. RYAN Aeronautical was founded by T. Claude Ryan, who established the Ryan Flying Company in San Diego early in the 20th century. In 1939, Ryan established the Ryan Aeronautical Company headquarters for manufacturing. The company continued production until 1969, when it was sold and eventually became known as Teledyne-Ryan Aeronautical Company.
A range of platforms and access solutions support detailed maintenance for the ST-M/2. These solutions include the Reach Deck Platform, Modular Stepover Platforms, Super Trestle Scaffold, Ultraraise, Super Service Stand, Easyraise, Bridge Deck, Cantilever Platform, Aviation Chock and Cone Trolley, Super Maintenance Platform, Fibreglass Platform, A Frame Aviation Platform, and Platform Ladder Warthog.
