What OS does a airplane use?

I think custom. I recall hearing somewhere that airplane flight control software is all implemented in interrupt routines, which prevents any likelihood of the software as a whole stalling on a bug.

I know the a320 uses two flight computers, one with a 68010 and one I think an 8086 (in case of an error in one or the other), and that they've formally verified it to some extent.

I don't know about boeing.

>prevents any likelihood of the software as a whole stalling on a bug

lol if I am not mistaken thats why the boeing planes went down

The 737 max probably runs windows

LynxOS, or something QNX.
Or absolutely proprietary.

If planes would use GNU/Linux, they would be twice as reliable

I think I'd be safer crossing Atlantic in tiny boat, than in B*eing plane

Pretty sure that's a man.

Probably XP.

What in the fuck is wrong with you people. They're animals.

Thank them for their service and go back to my seat because I'm not a racist.

So, what's the next step in your master plan?

He's a trap

VxWorks?

Boeing fag here.
Wing assembly 737 Max.
I can almost guarantee the crashes were pilot error.
Only 2nd world countries crashed.
US pilots reported similar issues, but were
better trained to handle it. Hence why no one died in the US.

if only you guys could engineer such a plane
instead it just blows up into a fireball of death

Boeingfag here, our planes currently run Windows XP Embedded. Microsoft is giving us extended support until our transition to a Windows 10 based solution in 2023.

Not a mechanical error, so don't look at me.
I can tell ur a Euro poor.
Regardless:
The US pilots had similar issues with the AOA sensor and the auto leveling systems.
But the US guys just turned it off and flew like normal.(several reports of this)
The 2nd world shit-skins didn't know what to do. They fought the system and ultimately lost.
It's simply a case of bad training.
Hell, the lion air pilot had 200 hours of flight experience in that 737 MAX 8.
VS the US's 1,200hrs requirement.

>diversity poos

Finally a real answer.

Thank you boeing employee

>I can tell ur a Euro poor

You know i'll give it to you there. You were close, but just a couple continents off. Furthermore you should tell me your name because I don't think boeing would look too kindly with a racist white supremest. I have to report you to PR now.
>pic related
Its my face when I figured out I was talking to a racist bigot

the pilot was a seasoned white man

i work with 60yr+ baby boomers who tell raciest jokes 24/7.
none cares.

Kek

HOT TAKE ALERT!!!
while dirty stinky pajeets, they dindu because all they did was "IT & Data Analytics"... at worst they fagged up your WiFi and removed your favorite snacks

This person did the needful to 2 planes

Boeing shill, shut up.
Airbus had same problem, but they were lucky in happened at 10 km in the air, not during takeoff.
This is needful software to blame.

Even 777? Or it runs Windows ME?

have you ever used linux

>whites
>seasoning
lmao u guys think milk is the spiciest thing in the world

>plane decides to update in midair
>crashes

Yes.
Never failed on me. But I guess pilots should know basic BASH commands and how to compile kernel and drivers.

>just turn it off sir, it fixes the bug ;)

Radio stops working.

If pilot is brow, plane is going down.

Not once in your whole life has linux gone full autism and just broke for no reason? You haven't used it for more than a day.

>If planes would use GNU/Linux, they would be twice as reliable
Unable to start Xflight aviation server, aborting

No, it did, but only after shitty updates, only on Uboonta.
Never happened on OpenSUSE.
>Tower, Arch again broke my XFlight

SataniOS

thanks for letting me know, I will make sure to always drive instead of fly after 2023

3 billion devices run java

It's a good thing Java is not an OS

Don't planes use real-time OSs?

I boycott boeing for their way of doing business (harrassement, murders, corruptions) and now I'm glad I did it, this shit company needs to die.
sadly it won't but if it can cost some fatty their job then it's ok (hopefully they will kill themselves)

www4.cs.fau.de/Projects/JX/

These planes have a faulty stall correction system. If no more planes crashed, it's because pilots, despite being not formally informed of the existence of this shit for economy reasons, managed to disable it and do the takeoff with manual trim. Absolutely disgraceful, Boing.

the entrtainment pos run linux, with minimal if any gnu.

Yes, most likely the pilots just gave too much throttle causing a secondary stall.
They haven't been trained to fly such powerful engines.

The consoles in fighter jets use QNX or VxWorks. The idea is to have a self-healing system that never goes offline, even for updates. I would like to think that commercial planes are held to the same standards.

You're on the wrong website, basedboy

I'll be the first person to provide a real answer.

>people actually think planes are monolithic to the point of relying on a fucking operating system for its core functionalities

They do. It's called a CCS (Common Core System).

>Smiths Aerospace chose Wind River Systems' VxWorks 653 RTOS for the B787's common core system (CCS), a cabinet that will host 80 to 100 applications, including Honeywell's FMS and health management software and Collins' crew alerting and display management software. Multiple utility management applications relating to landing gear, electrical power, hydraulics, environmental control and even "lavs and galleys" management also are hosted on the CCS, according to Mike Madden, Smiths' program director for B787 common core system.

probably some grain tuned piss simple unix like OS

nasa rover etc uses rtos like VxWorks
I bet its something similar

Not a bug, poor design

I would make sex

Kill myself and end the human race with dignitity if they were thre lats 2on eartyh.

>US pilots reported similar issues
>BUT IT"S STILL PILOT ERROR

US pilots:
AOA sensor malfunctions
pulls nose down once
they disable that auto level system and fly like normal.

2nd world pilots:
AOA sensor fails
I've never been trained on this!
LETS PULL UP 23 times until we run out of elevator trim and then CRASH.

You're already 2 steps too far ahead.
AOA sensor malfunctions on 2 planes of the same type. Other operators noticed the same issue.

I agree that the pilots probably acted wrong, but that's not the prime cause.

Thats the joke

~mcBain

Thanks user, very cool!

They don't. You do not lose basic functionality if the highest level OS fails, a plane is composed of numerous small systems that sometimes don't even "run" any software at all, going with an all hardware approach instead. A RTOS might be a billion times more reliable than a normal OS but you can still make things much leaner with FPGAs or custom ASICs.

The OSs are there to handle things like sensors, navigation, air conditioner, lighting, etc.

>If planes would use GNU/Linux, they would be twice as reliable
Because QNX and LynxOS don't have reliability certifications that linux has...
