  • Date and size check out, hook fact checked and sourced, DD checks indicate CP/CV not a concern. I do query some of the references, though: are earlyaviators.com and aerodacious.com reliable sources? - The Bushranger One ping only 23:21, 7 August 2012 (UTC)
  • I've taken out aerodacious, but kept earlyaviators. Prof. Lienhard in citation 2 refers readers to the latter site. (Plus it's the only source for his year of death other than a second-hand forum description of a book by a relative.) Clarityfiend (talk) 01:02, 8 August 2012 (UTC)
