In Essay #2, endnote 36, line 1, for “2002” read “2022”. Thanks to Barry Vaughan.

Essay #2 was accidentally posted in the incompletely corrected draft “ABL-essay_2.Safety_21-Dec-2022r”. As soon as we realized this, on 25 Jan 2023, it was replaced with the corrected final draft ABL essay_2lSafety_22 Dec 2022r.pdf. We apologize for any confusion.

In Essay #3, “Runway robbery?,” posted 29 December 2022, two errors have been marked and corrected in a reposting on 5 January 2023:
