I am going to totally dis-believe that anyone can issue flight control
commands over an ethernet network accessible by an under the passenger seat
box of electronics. First, I doubt that critical flight hardware speaks
garden variety ethernet. Second, I have to believe there is an air gap
between infotainment and critical networks.
But I didn't believe Lance Armstrong could have ever been guilty of doping
either.

Yeah ... makes me wonder what the hell they were thinking by allowing the
wifi network be on the same network as the flight controls.
This is a possible Cylon situation.
