Timeline for The Airbus A320 that pitched down due to solar radiation recently. Why did that happen? I thought the computers vote the corrupted one out and ignore?

| 6 hours ago | comment | added | mins | The main factual and public document so far is Airbus AOT. Previous software versions of the ELAC have no vulnerability, the problem is with the last update. The BBC article contains approximations, like "there is no direct mechanical link between the controls in the cockpit and the parts of the aircraft that actually govern flight" while in this specific case there is a mechanical linkage between the cockpit and the THS, in case the elevators can't be controlled using the ELACs or the backup computers. | |
