"You Anti-Apple asshats have been joyfully bashing Apple when, as I pointed out, thousands of flights have flown since the update to iOS 8.3"

Well done Sparky I knew you could hit ad hominem in under three replys

Quick question. Can an Apple iOS update glitch an iPad so that APPs won't work properly or the unit itself won't work properly?

I used it because it was used on me. . . and you fellows really deserved it with the degree of nonsense you all were spewing all over the place. Nobody was using the brains God gave you in your rush to blame Apple for the glitch. Not one of you bothered to THINK. You emoted like asshat Liberals. . . so you deserved to be called on it.

I pointed out the flaws in all of your claims. . . the errors in your thinking. IF you had stopped and bothered to think for just a few moments before you rushed to bash, you might have wondered how it would effect just a few flights. . . and not every other plane in the sky that flies with the same software and the iPad. I did. I realized that it could not be a generalized hardware/software issue. It had to be something else. . . localized, to be affecting on a few flights. This is the kind of analysis and diagnoses I do for a living and the headline conclusion simply stunk.

Could an Apple iOS update glitch an iPad (would that be a single iPad or all iPads?) so that APPS won't work properly? Frankly, it could, but it has not yet. iOS 8.3 came out in OCTOBER 2014. . . and airlines have been flying with FlightDeck on iOS 8.3 for some time. That is a time tested number of flights without a glitch. Jeppeson tested their software under iOS 8.3 Beta for some time prior to the release date because it is mission critical. I considered all this in making my opinion and call that it had to be external to the iPad and software.

In other words, Mad Dawgg, I used my BRAIN and THOUGHT it through. None of you characters bothered to do that except Star Traveler and a few other non-Apple bashers, the ones who provided answers. . . not bashing.
