No, but he was a pioneer airman and designer and eventually merged with his arch-rival Wright, hence Curtiss-Wright. Curtiss independenly invented ailerons which were originally called ( Interplane Field Struts) in l908-09. These were far superior to the wing-warping device of the Wright Bros. the ealry ailerons extended beyond the wing plane of the craft-used on biplanes, gave the craft the appearance of a triplane when viewed Bow-On. hence Interplane field struts- in the air-field between the upper and lower wings. a Biplane of this type only had two ailerons, economizing on control surfaces!
