We publish our audit record because accuracy claims should be checkable. Every entry on this site runs through an automated fact-audit pipeline (accuracy audit → source-grounded repair → visual QA); this page is generated from that pipeline's own report, not written by hand.

Aircraft — The claim that Langley's patent was the first US patent for an aircraft is misleading; earlier patents for aircraft-like devices exist.
Aircraft — The Stratolaunch was not 'under construction' as of 2016; it was completed and first flew in 2019.
Aircraft engine — The Manly–Balzer engine is described as being from 1903, but it was actually built in 1901 and tested in 1902.
Aircraft engine — The Armstrong Siddeley Jaguar IV (S) is described as an early series-produced geared engine from 1926, but it was actually introduced in 1927.
Airplane — The Boeing 707 was not in commercial passenger service until 2010; most airlines retired the 707 from passenger service by the early 1980s, and the last major U.S. carrier (TWA) retired its 707 passenger fleet in 1983.
