When was the last time anyone saw the FMS hardware replaced? The software has to work on all variants applied, no matter the year, make/model, but the FMS date. Does the stick update every 777 or only certain FMS models???

Does the latest ac fly on a V1.0 or V14? ( or whatever V is the most recent?)

Remember how good some of the version updates have been?
The MCAS problem and the new problem with the performance of the FCC has nothing to do with the FMS. MCAS and other logic (like Mach trim, stab trim) is run on the FCC (Flight control computer).
