The Blacklist

Chemical Mary (No. 143) - S8-E7

Factual error: French (and other nations) ATC rely on ground-based radar to track aircraft, not GPS from the cockpit of an aircraft. Meanwhile, whilst the aircraft that had been tampered with had compromised systems, the TCAS radar on the plane flying in the other direction would have alerted its pilots to take avoiding action.

Ogden Greeley (No. 40) - S8-E8

Factual error: During the scene in a London bar, the emergency exit sign is red (and not green as required by UK law). The signs adjacent to the toilets are unlike the ones regularly seen in the UK, as are the US style light switches and a 110v power outlet in the ladies' toilets.

Mistakes

Anslo Garrick, Part 1 - S1-E9

Character mistake: As Reddington sets up the blood transfer between himself and Ressler he inserts the intravenous line in Ressler's arm first and then in his own arm. This way the remaining air inside the line gets into the recipient's body and could very well kill him. Judging the expert way he handles the set up he should know to first insert the IV in his own arm, let the line fill with blood and then insert the IV in Ressler's arm.

Suggested correction: That amount of air would probably not cause any problem. It actually takes quite a lot of air to cause any issue.

Questions

Cape May - S3-E19

Question: At the beginning of the final segment, the American Flag is flying upside down outside the beach lodge. Since it is pretty clear that Red would not being trying to elicit support/backup for the deeds that he and his female accomplice were about to undertake, what is the significance of this widely accepted distress signal?
