Not permanently, which is the conjecture laid out by OP. At some point, there will need to be nav data updates, updates to the aircraft's required systems, updates to IFE systems, etc. Modern jets do all of that wirelessly. Additionally, every single modern jet uploads all recorded engine parameters from the flight to the engine manufacturer after it arrives at the gate. Do I know what I am talking about? Ref. username.
- constantcrying 2y agoSure, I have worked on multiple plane systems which were connected wirelessly, even to the internet. (Although that is something which I am extremely glad I have left behind me and would never brag about in my profile name) Even though, a modern jet is still able to function without internet.
- joe_the_user 2y agoYes but my point is whether the system can be "never on the Internet" (hence never subject to constantly evolving hacks) and it doesn't seem like the systems you describe are necessarily that.
