Terms of Service

Last updated: September 2026. These Terms of Service govern your use of flightfollower.net and its articles, reconstructions, maps, videos, and other published material.

Use of this site

Flight Follower provides aviation incident reconstructions, historical material, commentary, and links to external sources for informational and educational purposes. You may read, share, and link to our public pages, provided you do not misrepresent the material or use the site in a way that violates applicable law.

Editorial material and accuracy

We make reasonable efforts to distinguish documented facts, investigation findings, recorded communications, and editorial analysis. Aviation investigations can be preliminary, amended, or incomplete. Nothing on this site should be treated as an official finding of an investigating authority unless the cited authority itself made that finding.

Not operational advice

Nothing published by Flight Follower is a substitute for an aircraft flight manual, approved checklist, air traffic control instruction, applicable regulation, NOTAM, AIP, official weather information, or advice from a qualified aviation professional. Do not use an article as operational guidance for an actual flight.

Video and third-party material

Flight Follower may embed videos from our own YouTube channel and may link to material hosted by government agencies, investigation authorities, news organizations, archives, and other third parties. Embedded media remains subject to the terms and policies of the platform hosting it. External websites are operated independently and their content, availability, and privacy practices are outside our control.

Copyright and reuse

Unless otherwise stated, Flight Follower's original written articles, site design, graphics, animations, and other original material are protected by applicable copyright law. Government and third-party source material remains subject to its own rights and licensing terms. Short quotations and factual references are used for reporting, commentary, and research purposes. If you believe material on this site infringes your rights, contact us with the relevant details.

Comments and user submissions

If the site accepts comments, stories, or other submissions, do not submit material that is unlawful, threatening, defamatory, invasive of another person's privacy, or knowingly false. By submitting material, you represent that you have the right to submit it and grant Flight Follower permission to use it for operating and publishing the site, subject to applicable law.

Advertising and links

The site may display advertising, including Google AdSense, and may contain affiliate or other commercial links. The presence of an advertisement or external link does not mean Flight Follower endorses the advertiser, product, or external site's claims.

Changes and availability

We may update these terms as the site develops. We may also change, suspend, or remove pages or features without notice. The date at the top of this page indicates when these terms were last updated.
