It happened once, to one aircraft, and it’s solvable with a software update.
You’re more likely to be struck by lightning the next time you leave your house than to run into this problem on a flight, and that was before the software update.
Not even once according to the article. They don’t actually know what happened on that flight, but their simulations can’t test test for cosmic radiation and didn’t reveal any other errors, so they presume it must be the cause. Then made up a story about that being a day of heavy day of solar activity, which the article refutes.
Yeah, but the problem is, the airplanes don’t. The company didn’t think it would be a problem and now it’s a fucking problem.
