LOT cyber attack grounds 1,400 passengers at warsaw airport.

Not flight critical systems, but note the words of LOT spokesperson Adrian Kubicki:

"...there is not much airlines can do to protect them from cyber attacks. He said cyber attacks are becoming an “industry-wide problem with a much wider scale,” which needs to be addressed".

Who cares, cosmo? Well, I'm not scare-mongering as you put it. As a person who is professionally involved in the integration of commercial entertainment into aircraft cabins I am aware that the latest Wi-Fi systems being offered to airlines, share circuits with flight critical systems - and I don't believe that is acceptable.
