Was flying machine plagued constantly by con artists taking money from enormous numbers of people? I.e. was it akin to lead-into-gold alchemist research, or known-shady used car dealerships? Did wise investors have to assume a scam was in progress until innocence was proven? Did flying machines have a large number of exposed con games in its history?
