Oxford English Dictionary says:

"assume

• verb 1 accept as true without proof."


You didn't check with Blink or their pilots to obtain proof, ergo you ASSumed.

Oxford English Dictionary again:

"guess

• verb 1 estimate or suppose (something) without sufficient information to be sure of being correct"


Sounds like more assumption to me but hey, you carry on.
