Even if the maintenance and flight information data were compromised, at worst this would mean that the operating history of the aircraft is not accurate. This is a big deal but not something that will lead to in flight failure.
Well this could very well lead to flight failure in the future if is undetected or if detected late to an unscheduled D-check for that aircraft. Which costs $1 to $2M without counting the lost revenue.
Could this mean that the 787 will face delays like the A380 did?
The A380 had wiring issues, I understood they were physical but it could well mean that the guys in Airbus were scratching their heads: "were the hell did we put this friggin connection that connects passengers to flight deck, we need to unplug it" for a year or something.
The annual UN vote on the U.S. trade embargo on Cuba saw support for the Caribbean island remain overwhelming, despite a call by President George W. Bush for countries to join Washington in pushing Havana toward democracy.
Canada was among 184 countries that supported the measure denouncing the embargo, which the world body passed for the 16th year.
Joining the U.S. in opposing it were close American allies Israel, Palau and Marshall Islands, while Micronesia abstained.
