what is dangerous is the ideal spitting out bad information that pilots are going to put in the computer that might lead them and for worst situation will also control alaska airlines had to pause operations for 22 minutes, saying in a statement the tail touches were caused by a vendor software update that mistakenly installed code resulting in inaccurate takeoff performance way data for a small sub set of our flights. pilots input how much weight they have on board and the plane's engines adjust accordingly. based on that information. but it was incorrect data that caused the tales of the planes to scrape the runway to take off. really the concern here is to make sure that we can do computer updates on any of these systems without them, having the potential of imperiling the airplanes. the airline says the issue was fixed after about five hours, adding the tilt touch was nearly imperceptible to those on board. both aircraft were cleared by our maintenance and safety teams to return to service that dayoms
