A few flights? American Airlines reports their entire 737 fleet was affected. And see Sparky AGAIN you have missed the picture. First if you had read my postings I said the APP glitched. Now the APP system was designed by...

Apple.

You do not know what you are talking about. Apple did not make the APP. Jeppeson made the App. These are easily proved facts!

Apple made the OPERATING SYSTEM and the hardware which did not "glitch" and did not crash! Get it through your neutronium dense skull Apple had nothing to do with this . . .

Jeppeson Aviation, a company owned by Boeing, made the APP which could not handle a duplicate chart in its database, which Apple had nothing to do with except it ran on Apple's hardware, just as it runs on Microsoft's Windows hardware.

American Airlines reports their entire 737 fleet was affected.

Learn to read for comprehension, Mad Dawgg, not for emotion.

You have been told by people who do understand quite well what has happened here . . . but you are so determined to blame Apple that you are blinded by your delusions and your emotions. The problem was solved in just a few minutes.

READ WHAT I TOLD YOU ABOUT THE REST OF AMERICAN AIRLINE'S FLEET.

I have read a lot more on this "glitch" than is in this one mistaken article. . . Other articles covered it in a lot more detail covering the actual cause and the solutions undertaken, most of which required downloading a new version of the FlightDeck App for the rest of the Fleet with an updated database, and using a PDF version of the Ronald Reagan International Airport Chart for the flights going there on their iPads.

There was no grounding of AA's 737 entire fleet. NOR did they require the rest of the pilots to not use their iPads. As I told you, the only flights that had a problem were those where the flight plans included a stop at Ronald Reagan International Airport. ONLY THOSE FLIGHTS. . . none of the others would even see the problem because they would not load the duplicate chart.

Ergo, all your histrionic, emotive blow-hard bloviating on this thread is pointless, especially where you are ignorantly trying to blame Apple for a problem that is inherently a Jeppeson Aviation software glitch in their database.

You anti-apple people are so delusional you cannot see how rabidly insane you appear when you cannot accept that you are at all wrong about anything.

Wow another entry on the fallacy hit parade first ad hominem and now a Red Herring...

Neither was asserted or claimed. what was claimed is the entire AA 737 fleet was "affected"...

Got it now Sparky? Now back to your fallacy hit parade. I bet you can get us an Appeal to Motive in there...

Oh wait, already happened. My bad...

hahahaha
