If a person disrupts ONE flight the are charged with a federal crime that gets them up to 20 years in prison and that is if the plane still makes it's destination. Apple disrupted several dozen to the point they were grounded.

According to the Dallas Morning News several dozen flights are affected, although it's not clear what caused the glitch.

Apparently this had to do with the Jeppesen Mobile Terminal Chart app which is used by the airline company and is also approved by the FAA. American Airlines has since confirmed that not only was that particular route delayed, but that “several dozen” flights had also been grounded due to the issue with the iPad.

An app fails and you blame the hardware maker?

The iPad is hardware. It runs software. Apple does make some software, but based on the article you linked, Apple doesn’t make the software in question.
