Don't other teams have >1 car as well?
Could competing interests - constructors championship vs individual championship have affected what McL decided to do?
Sorry, could you Please Explainᵀᴹ for the dummies please thanks
Sounded like Qatar track is very fast so difficult to overtake?? So opposite of Monaco but same consequence?
Can someone explain why McLaren did what they did?
What was the potential upside.
I know nothing about F1 other than the drivers are nuts and the cars don't have V8
The big multistorey car park between T2 and T3 (P1 and P1/P2 but not P2) has now been demolished. Just an outdoor car park there so it is easy to cross over from Shiers to Keith Smith. They have erected undercover but outdoor walkways from terminals to P2 to make it slightly easier.
No issues...
Good news, it appears the fix will be completed prior to the EAD taking effect in approx 12hrs
Now, what was in the previous software (that they have now rolled back to) that required an update and why?.
Especially when the EAD suggests that the worst case scenario might be an uncommanded elevator input that may result in a situation that exceeds the aircraft's structural limits.
Perhaps the larger operators will have them, as software upgrades periodically occur. However planned upgrades could be done at maintenance checks which may mean smaller operators won't have them relying on maintenance outfits?
By causing a memory bit to flip from 0 to 1 or visa versa (SEU - single event upset)
Usually hardware/software error correction protects against this but sometimes the code may not be written in a way that gives such resiliency
Space travel is particularly affected. Both Voyager 1 and 2 have...
Network aviation does not appear to have commented though QF has said none of its fleet are affected
The number of aircraft globally affected are approximately 6000 - 50% of the global fleet?
The fix shouldn't take long though if the the software can be rolled back on the affected computer. I...
The solutions are to roll back the software to an earlier iteration or replace the ELAC computer. But if the spare hardware is also affected, it can't be used.
