Every claim, linked and dated
Sources and downloads
Every claim on this site traces to the research report of August 23, 2026, and through it to official grant, FAA, and manufacturer pages, each checked on a stated date. The full report is downloadable here. Time-sensitive statuses must be rechecked on the date they matter.
The research reports
Two reports, both dated August 23, 2026, both published with the host business unnamed by design:
- report-vlos.md, the current plan: a low-altitude, geofenced, Part 107 visual-line-of-sight pilot that can start before any waiver, with the three-stage operating model and the six phases. Verified
- report.md, the original concept study: the long-endurance county aircraft, the full grant analysis, and the aircraft appendix; now the reference for the later remote-launch phase. Verified
Where they differ, the low-altitude report governs the current plan.
How to read the claim states
Everything on this site carries one of four states, shown as a labeled chip: Verified a fact with a source, checked on the stated date; Planning estimate a planning figure, labeled with where it came from; Proposal something suggested and not yet decided by anyone; Open question a question nobody has answered yet. A time-sensitive status (a Blue-list entry, a grant deadline, a price) is only as good as its check date and must be reverified when it matters.

Two vendor pages (Shield AI, Harris support) refuse automated requests but open normally in a browser, and one (the VXE30 manufacturer page) no longer resolves at the address the report recorded.
