Bombardier software bug caused incorrect turns on missed approaches...
From The Register - https://www.theregister.com/2020/05/..._approach_bug/
I can't find a Canadian TSB report into the incident. There is an EASA AD - https://ad.easa.europa.eu/ad/US-2020-10-05 Scary! <I have had a quick scan for existing threads but nothing found. Feel free to move into one should it already exist> |
As of today it's a "Mitsubishi" bug :)
Though it's actually a (Rockwell) Collins FMS issue - and following the links, the FAA actually appears to have issued their AD against the FMS, not against the aircraft, which is certainly an interesting approach. |
Is that FMS used in any other aircraft ?
In any case I would agree with Bombardier that a software fix would be wiser than limiting the use of the FMS... |

Mid age citations such as CJ2+, CJ3, RA390,... well known issue since at least 3 years

Mild thread drift; has the software bug in the EFIS re declutter mode inhibiting the vital ATT mis-compare alert been rectified (CRJ accident in Sweden).
Is the problem within EFIS, thus a vendor problem. If so what other EFIS / aircraft could be affected? |
Flying through the localiser without capturing it..... if flying too fast.
Though I understand there are ways to handle that one, if you know it has that tendency. |
