Bad data can come from bad hardware (JT610), bad programming, bad inputs or any combination of these. The Sunwing Airlines Belfast incident is an example of bad data being input by the crew. OAT of -52c was input into the FMC. The FMC did what it was programmed to do. In JT610, a bad AoA sensor fed bad data (to a bad program I would argue) to the FMC. Again the FMC did what it was programmed to do.

NOT easily trained. Requires exceptional situational awareness.
