Item 1.		Security and Issuer
		The class of equity securities to which this statement on Schedule
13D relates is the Class B Common Stock, par value $1.00 per share
("Securities"), of Curtiss-Wright Corporation, (the "Issuer"), a Delaware
corporation with principal offices located at 1200 Wall Street West, Lyndhurst,
New Jersey, 07071.

Item 2.		Identity and Background
		This statement is being filed by Mario J. Gabelli ("Mario
Gabelli"), Marc J. Gabelli ("Marc Gabelli") and various entities which either
one directly or indirectly controls or for which either one acts as chief
investment officer.  These entities, except for Lynch Corporation ("Lynch"),
Spinnaker Industries, Incorporated ("Spinnaker"), Western New Mexico Telephone
Company ("Western New Mexico"), Entoleter, Inc. ("Entoleter"), Lynch Telephone
Corporation ("Lynch Telephone"), Lynch Interactive Corporation ("Interactive"),
Brighton Communications Corporation ("Brighton") and Inter-Community Telephone
Company ("Inter-Community") (collectively, "Lynch and its affiliates"), engage
in various aspects of the securities business, primarily as investment adviser
to various institutional and individual clients, including registered
investment companies and pension plans, as broker/dealer and as general partner
of various private investment partnerships.  Certain of these entities may also
make investments for their own accounts.
	The foregoing persons in the aggregate often own beneficially more than
5% of a class of a particular issuer.  Although several of the foregoing
persons are treated as institutional investors for purposes of reporting their
beneficial ownership on the short-form Schedule 13G, the holdings of those who
do not qualify as institutional investors may exceed the 1% threshold presented
for filing on Schedule 13G or implementation of their investment philosophy may
from time to time require action which could be viewed as not completely
passive.  In order to avoid any question as to whether their beneficial
ownership is being reported on the proper form and in order to provide greater
investment flexibility and administrative uniformity, these persons have
decided to file their beneficial ownership reports on the more detailed
Schedule 13D form rather than on the short-form Schedule 13G and thereby to
provide more expansive disclosure than may be necessary.

following persons: Gabelli Group Capital Partners, Inc. ("Gabelli Partners"),

		(f)  - Reference is made to Schedule I hereto.


Item 3.		Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration
		The Reporting Persons used an aggregate of approximately
$12,009,477 to purchase the Securities reported as beneficially owned in Item
5. GAMCO and Gabelli Funds used approximately $5,261,623 and $6,637,887,
respectively, of funds that were provided through the accounts of certain of
their investment advisory clients (and, in the case of some of such accounts at

purchase the Securities for such clients.   Gabelli Advisers used approximately
$86,100 of client funds to purchase the Securities reported by it.  The
Foundation and Gabelli Partners received the Securities reported by them in
connection with the distribution by Unitrin, Inc. of the Securities to its
shareholders.

Item 4.		Purpose of Transaction
		Each of the Reporting Persons has purchased and holds the
Securities reported by it for investment for one or more accounts over which it
has shared, sole, or both investment and/or voting power, for its own account,
or both.
		The Reporting Persons, with the exceptions of Lynch and its
affiliates, are engaged in the business of securities analysis and investment
and pursue an investment philosophy of identifying undervalued situations.  In
pursuing this investment philosophy, the Reporting Persons analyze the
operations, capital structure and markets of companies in which they invest,
including the Issuer, on a continuous basis through analysis of documentation
and discussions with knowledgeable industry and market observers and with
representatives of such companies (often at the invitation of management).  The
Reporting Persons do not believe they possess material inside information
concerning the Issuer.  As a result of these analytical activities one or more
of the Reporting Persons may issue analysts reports, participate in interviews
or hold discussions with third parties or with management in which the
Reporting Person may suggest or take a position with respect to potential
changes in the operations, management or capital structure of such companies as
a means of enhancing shareholder values.  Such suggestions or positions may
relate to one or more of the transactions specified in clauses (a) through (j)
of Item 4 of Schedule 13D including, without limitation, such matters as
disposing of one or more businesses, selling the company or acquiring another
company or business, changing operating or marketing strategies, adopting or
not adopting, certain types of anti-takeover measures and restructuring the
company's capitalization or dividend policy.
		Each of the Reporting Persons intends to adhere to the foregoing
investment philosophy with respect to the Issuer.  However, none of the
Reporting Persons intends to seek control of the Issuer or participate in the
management of the Issuer, and any Reporting Person that is registered as an
investment company under the 1940 Act will participate in such a transaction
only following receipt of an exemption from the SEC under Rule 17d-1 under the
1940 Act, if required, and in accordance with other applicable law.  In
pursuing this investment philosophy, each Reporting Person will continuously
assess the Issuer's business, financial condition, results of operations and
prospects, general economic conditions, the securities markets in general and
those for the Issuer's securities in particular, other developments and other
investment opportunities, as well as the investment objectives and
diversification requirements of its shareholders or clients and its fiduciary
duties to such shareholders or clients.  Depending on such assessments, one or
more of the Reporting Persons may acquire additional Securities or may
determine to sell or otherwise dispose of all or some of its holdings of
Securities.  Although the Reporting Persons share the same basic investment
philosophy and although most portfolio decisions are made by or under the
supervision of Mario Gabelli, the investment objectives and diversification
requirements of various clients differ from those of other clients so that one
or more Reporting Persons may be acquiring Securities while others are
disposing of Securities.
		With respect to voting of the Securities, the Reporting Persons
have adopted general voting policies relating to voting on specified issues
affecting corporate governance and shareholder values.  Under these policies,
the Reporting Persons generally vote all securities over which they have voting
power in favor of cumulative voting, financially reasonable golden parachutes,
one share one vote, management cash incentives and pre-emptive rights and
against greenmail, poison pills, supermajority voting, blank check preferred
