Laptops Nearly Caused QANTAS to Crash?

First it was "clear-air turbulence", which was not true,

Then mechanical error?

Now they are concerned laptops on board that interfered with the A-330 fly-by-wire system!

Also, the passenger cell-phone video shown here raises the question. Did that cell-phone cause the glitch? Since you can't turn them on-off during take-off/landing, can you turn them on during a crash-landing? I have left mine on in my pocket before and forgotten it. How many do you think are on during any given jumbo flight with hundreds of people on board?


Have a safe flight. - HLG
