If it does, it's wrong. Edit: Now that I have read it, I would have to disagree with you. The article only references the Bernoulli pressure arguments, it does not mention Newton's third law or airflow circulation.

There is no scientific contention about flight. Nobody is currently publishing papers on this topic ("journal of fluid mechanics" if you are interested), it was well understood in the previous century. Newton's third law explains at a high level how object fly. Yes you can dig into the details of fluid motion, turbulent flow, boundary layers etc, but this does not detract from the high-level picture.
