It's a scary thought that such issues exist, regardless of how common or not.

  I think planes already scrutinized to a very high degree. What I am more concerned about is airlines doing the reboot in flight to save time. Planes are often on a very tight schedule (maybe not cargo planes).

    There's plenty of time to do the reboot between turning the planes (disembarking and boarding) - a good amount of A350 planes spend the day in the sun at their destinations since the operator can't fly anywhere else with them between flights.

    Don't worry, the AD (airworthiness directive) specifically calls for complete, ground power cycles. These cannot be done in flight. https://ad.easa.europa.eu/blob/EASA_AD_2017_0129_R1.pdf/AD_2017-0129R1_1 https://ad.easa.europa.eu/blob/EASA_AD_2017_0129_R1.pdf/AD_2...

  you're expecting software without bugs? there's no such thing.
