"Software for airplanes" is a broad term. If I ever get into a position to make software for airplanes, it's probably not going to be things that can crash the plane. The entertainment system is still software for airplanes.

Swissair Flight 111 was possibly crashed by its entertainment system. Nothing to do with the software though.

That was the wiring and circuit breakers, not the software.

(Also flammable material)

Edit: yes, not software related.
