I'm changing the first paragraph to reflect the fraudulent nature of Byrd's 1926 "North Pole" flight. Also expanding portion relating to the 1927 crash. --Keithpickering 15:59, 5 May 2006 (UTC)

Don't agree that sufficient references have been provided to establish the claim of "fraudulent". See Ohio State] note on the diary. This note indicates that the handwritten notes in the diary back Byrd's claim that he believed he had reached the pole. — ERcheck (talk) 03:02, 19 November 2007 (UTC)
