Fault tolerance and Graceful Degradation?
Incident: LATAM B773 near Belo Horizonte on Dec 20th 2018, electrical failures, RAT deployed
"On Dec 20th 2018 Brazil's CENIPA (NTSB like) reported electrical failures occurred in cruise flight, which also compromised other aircraft systems. The crew decided to perform a precautionary diversion to Belo Horizonte for an overweight landing. As result the brakes overheated causing the fuse plugs of the tyres to open and the tyres to deflate. There were no injuries, the aircraft sustained minor damage."
