btw, this plane also has a bug that means you're also advised not to turn it off too much

A quick hotfix sounds much better. That has never caused issues for anything ever.

Airplanes will always be shutdown between flights, because this no one was affected by this bug.

Hey Amazon, I want a refund on my recenter order of Boeing 787.
as this probably is an int32 overflow the fix might require some deep changes - rushing it would be dangerous

Cycle power' means switch off and on doesn't it? In mid-flight?!?

if you need a complete DO178B re-qualification it is normal...

To be fair - I'd be more concerned if they pushed a fix very quickly with even poorer testing.
