[edit] Disparate citations for dates & altitude for Malcolm Ross

"The History of the Balloon Altitude Record" figure of 86,000 feet initially entred here for the November 1956 flight seems to be incorrect. Other Web sources cite 76,000 ft as the correct figure. I've changed it to that figure and am adding sources.
