Well in this you get into a circular argument, because if you did include Linux then you would need to verify every line of code that is being used. Which is why you would never use linux and why it wouldn't be included.

- sbradford26 8y agoThe code would most like still be counted but that software would probably be either DAL D or DAL E. Here is a the wiki for the standard that software has to meet for commercial aircraft. It explain the DAL (Design Assurance Level) levels and what goes into them. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DO-178C https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DO-178C
