I’m wondering. If the systems can be hacked, can the computers that control flight paths while in the air be hijacked? This is curiosity question, having nothing to do with this situation.

In theory, any system could be hacked. One would hope that the more mission-critical the system however, the more safeguards are in place to protect against it.
