There is a lot of disagreement on flour weights. LA Times' article talks about it and identifies the following:

For the most part, I prefer to follow King Arthur Flour and, whenever possible, I measure by weight as specified in the recipe. So if a Cook's Illustrated/America's Test Kitchen has a recipe calling for "3 cups of flour or 15 oz" (where 15 oz is 425.243 grams), I will use 15 oz and not 12.7 oz (360 grams @ 120 grams/oz).

For my Dad's recipes, he seems to use the 142 as well. Again, go by weight (unless I note otherwise)
