Is Aang also boosted by the comet? If a Firebender gets boosted by the comet and Aang is also a Firebender, shouldn't his Firebender abilities also be stronger with the sun?

And of course the same with the moon and his waterbender abilities.
As the wiki suggests Aang also effected. 


  An Avatar-level firebender can produce fire whips, the most being five
  at once. They are capable of reaching across long distances, displayed
  when Aang used the technique hundreds of feet above Ozai. This may
  have been a result of his firebending being augmented by Sozin's Comet
  or because he was in the Avatar State at the time, or possibly a
  combination of both. Each fire whip is also very wide and moves in a
  similar fashion to squid or octopus tentacles. They have enough
  destructive power to demolish large rock formations.
