I contacted FlightAware about the aircraft type error on what they repeatedly show for AAY flight 222 (MD-80 vs A319). They said they get the aircraft type info from the flight plans filed by the airlines. That still doesn't sound right.
FlightRadar24.com gets their info from the ADS-B signals and seems to have more accurate info.
