Flight Follower covers aviation incidents through a combination of air traffic control recordings, public investigation records, official reports and other reliable sources.
We distinguish documented facts from preliminary reports and unresolved circumstances. When an investigation has established a probable cause, we report the finding rather than presenting our own theory as fact.
Publicly available recordings are used to reconstruct the operational sequence. Maps, animation and written explanations are Flight Follower editorial work intended to make the sequence understandable without changing what the underlying record establishes.
When the available records do not establish a cause, we say so. We do not invent timestamps, aircraft details, investigative findings or causal explanations to fill gaps.
Articles may be updated when authoritative information changes or when a factual error is identified. Material corrections are handled under our Corrections Policy.
