Haven't heard a peep out of the guy, never seen an interview or heard of him representing himself as anything other than what he appears to be, a guy renting out his time and equipment for personal profit which is the perfectly legal line of business he's in.

If you went down the road of blaming the contractors or suppliers for the way the end user utilised the goods and services supplied you'd have to chastise others for not grassing her up. That could at a stretch include the avionics engineer who installed the GPS and world databases on the Steerman as they probably were aware that the purpose of the flight was to recreate a historic fight made well before GPS was invented. Where do you stop? There's only one person responsible for the embellishments made, and that's the one calling the shots.
