Sourcing
[edit]I very much doubt that luft46.com [1] would be considered a reliable source. If there are no better sources, the article will probably have to be deleted. I'll see if I can find anything myself, but I don't think there is much available, unfortunately. If the luft46 article is correct, it is in any case questionable whether this can really be described as an 'aircraft', given that it seems to have barely left the ground.

- http://discaircraft.greyfalcon.us/ARTHUR%20SACK%20A.htm has a bit more info, not sure how reliable it is. MilborneOne (talk) 18:30, 26 February 2012 (UTC)
- Yes - I'd looked at that: again, unlikely to pass WP:RS. Looking at the German-language Wikipedia article [2], there may be one published source - J.Miranda/P.Mercado: Flugzeug Profile 23 - Deutsche Kreisflügelflugzeuge, Flugzeug Publikations GmbH, Illertissen 1995. It might be worth trying to track this down to see if it is any better. AndyTheGrump (talk) 18:45, 26 February 2012 (UTC)
- There is a scan of the Miranda and Mercado article here [3]. The ADL (a historic aviation society) source I have added appears to be authoritative, having its material from Sack's son. At the end of Koos' text he claims that others ripped off the photos he first published and that they made up text to go with it. For that reason I have omitted some of the assertions from the German WP article as they clearly originate from the Miranda/Mercado version of events. Guffydrawers (talk) 18:13, 3 April 2017 (UTC)
