Information is hard to find[edit]
I enjoy and appreciate this article; I have been trying to improve it, but information on the World Wide Web on this gentleman is difficult to say the least. I will keep trying. ProfessorPaul 01:57, 10 October 2006 (UTC)
There is an error inthe Article regarding "..Canadian company called Barcelona Traction, Light, and Power, a huge operation building infrastructure in Brazil". Loewenstein's attempt to take over an operation building infrastructure in Brazil was directed against "Brazilian Traction" and its subsidiary Rio de Janeiro Tramway Light and Power Ltd., belonging to the same group as Barcelona Traction. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 212.147.53.100 (talk) 13:06, 21 July 2010 (UTC)
There's an interesting podcast about the death of Alfred Loewenstein called The Mysterious Death of Flying Millionaire Alfred Loewenstein[1] An extant Fokker F VII was visited, and one of the most interesting points in this podcast is that the outside door and the interior door were completely different. The exterior door had a port window in it, while the interior door was solid. 82.21.228.91 (talk) 18:41, 26 June 2018 (UTC)

They've been pretty much disregarded as a journalist, let alone a historian, for making stuff up. Should his opinion be here so prominently? Thommurph (talk) 23:06, 24 July 2021 (UTC)
