Thanks sipow - now it makes sense. Could cause the largest terrorists attack in our history...I'm assuming 'military aged male illegals' will also play their part.

Biden's dangerous for the country.

I worked at Boeing for 32 years, most of that in the in-flight entertainment system. Unless things have changed - and I doubt it - there is no connection, wireless or otherwise, between the IFE and the airplane controls. Why would there be?

Methinks this “hacker” is a wacko. If he did what he thinks he did, he should get life in prison.
