Computer-Related Incidents with Commercial Aircraft
The Bluecoat Project
The
Bluecoat Project was initiated by Bill Bulfer an airline pilot
who has written user guides for the flight management systems on board certain
Boeing aircraft. The purpose of the project is to generate and maintain ongoing
discussion between the designers of these computer systems and the pilots who use
them, and has expanded to include regulatory authorities and noted researchers.
The project maintains public information and reports on its WWW site, as well as
private information for members. The public reports are a fine resource for those
interested in current computer-related issues in aviation safety.
