As a professional in the computer business, you should know that
there are virtually no computer systems that are not vulnerable to
security compromise. Connecting the cabin entertainment computer
system to the flight control computer is just plane ignorant.
Agreed. The only way to keep the systems separate and secure is to
eliminate all physical connections between them ... but I'm sure that
Boeing will negligently fail to do this.
No you aren;'t
At least it's no longer necessary for terrorists to try to overpower
the crew. The airplane will crash and the crew will never even know
why. The suicide bomber will be replaced by a passenger with a
laptop.
Yeah, right.
I'm no Airbus fan, but I believe the corruption within Boeing's
management that was exposed and prosecuted during Boeing's attempt to
lease air refueling tankers to the USAF recently speaks volumes about
Bowing management's cluelessness.
Perhaps they are losing their edge. No company can stay on top
forever.
Yeah, not like you would know of course, neverhaving been on top of
anything except your skid mark ridden chair.
