Dear Editor
Around 6,000 Airbus A320 series aircraft were grounded for urgent software modifications after one suddenly descended rapidly, injuring several passengers. It seems that updated software was flawed and the previous version is now being re-used.
This shows that all modifications need thorough testing before use but errors can still slip though. Luckily the aircraft industry puts safety as the first priority.
Five years on we are still injecting an untried, experimental product which has brought in millions of reports of injury and death, and our medical profession applauds it, while older technology options are available.
Perhaps doctors should have the same regard for life as engineers.
