Wright-type aeroplanes and Curtiss-type aeroplanes are often confused with each other. One simple way to determine whether a pioneer aeroplane is a Wright-type or a Curtiss-type is to note the number of propellers. Wright-type aeroplanes had two pusher propellers while Curtiss-type aeroplanes had a single pusher propeller.
