Airbus 'Glitch' That Went Undetected For Years Risked Failure Of Critical In-Flight Systems

So it's not just the Boing 737-Max .

The Register, a British tech news website, reports that some models of Airbus's A350 airliners, the company's 'workhorse' model, still need to be rebooted after exactly 149 hours of continuous use, even after the EU's aviation authority ordered Airbus to fix the glitch ASAP.
Now, the EU is issuing a reminder to pilots to make sure to turn their planes on and off again after 149 hours of power-on time, or risk the loss of critical systems in-flight.

Be sure to reset the airplane. You can also unplug it and plug it back in.

I used to think flying was one of the safest things you could do in this world but these last couple of years make is seem more like Mexican bungee jumping.

It seems like we’re moving further and further away from pilotless airplanes.

I've been on a plane that rebooted at the gate before departure. Comforting.
