FTA: Editor's note: An earlier version of this article mentioned the Boeing 787 CCS uses a Wind River VxWorks real-time OS product at its heart. While this is true, Wind River has been in touch to remind us "the CCS is made up of 80 to 100 applications," as well as VxWorks, and said the bug described in this article is not the fault of its operating system.
"The functions of VxWorks have nothing to do with the data issue you are highlighting in the 787," a spokesperson added. We are happy to clarify our coverage.
