Edson Fessenden Gallaudet (April 21, 1871– July 1, 1945) was a pioneer in the field of aviation, being the first person to experiment with warped wings in 1896.[1] In 1898, he built a warping-wing kite to test his invention of a warping-wing mechanism; this kite survives and is on display in the National Air and Space Museum in Washington, DC.[2] He later obtained US pilot's license #2.[3] Edson Gallaudet set up an aviation company, starting in 1908 in Norwich, Connecticut, building his first airplane in 1909.[4] He then established the Gallaudet Engineering Company in 1910, which was later incorporated as the Gallaudet Aircraft Corporation in 1917. In 1924, Edson Gallaudet retired from the company he had founded. The company assets were acquired by Major Reuben Fleet, who used them as the core around which he founded Consolidated Aircraft Corporation. Edson was the son of Edward Miner Gallaudet and the grandson of Thomas Hopkins Gallaudet, both famous educators in the field of Deaf education.
