Why in the hell is the flight control system even on the same network/bus as the public 'tard-net?!

Even passenger cars don't link their engine management system to the radio.




I wonder if it says "Would you like to play a game?" when you successfully hack into it with your 300 baud acoustic coupler modem?
I think i fancy a game of FSX..

Holy shit, they're actually going to fly this thing?


I got the special 'Dreamliner Gallery' tour when I was in Seattle because I have connections , and I pretty much fell in love with the whole design.

And now because we have such a "Dreamliner" of a plane, we can charge the customers 250% more for their tickets. Of course, you get a discount if you're a Senior Citizen, Active/Veteran Military, child under the age of 4, or simply prefer to ride in cargo, I mean "coach" instead.

Seriously, I wouldn't mind paying more to fly in one of those (call me a sucker), there are so many nice little touches to make it a pleasurable experience.
They can control the amount of oxygen getting in (sounds worrying, i know), so if the flight isn't full, they can increase the humidity, and stop your mouth getting stupidly dry and making you feel like shit at the end of a long flight.
Who the hell thinks of stuff like that?
The windows tint to different amounts, the LED lighting can be changed to create mood lighting (soft blue for sleeping, soft yellow/orange for relaxing etc.)
List goes on.

Well they're supposed to be so much more efficient than most older planes so they shouldn't be too much more expensive, still, they look pretty damn shiny

why are  some people berating the FAA? any terrorist hacker should have thought about taking over aircraft commercial aircraft ever since the Airbus came out with 100% fly-by-wire. Nothing new there.

Seems like a lot of wasted space inside the Dreamliner. And designing a toilet so you can take a shit in an Xbox look alike is priceless and says it all really.
