Apropos the subject matter under discussion. Strongly recommend the article "The Rise of the Machines" by journalist Matt O'Sullivan in the Saturday "Age" (Good Weekend magazine 13 May 2017) where he interviews Qantas Captain Kevin Sullivan who was flying QF 72, an A330 from Singapore to Perth on 7 October 2008 when a serious computer defect caused a jet upset. Five pages of riveting reading.
