That's obviously an old cockpit. The new Airbus A380 only has one pilot and a dog.
A dog you ask? Yes a dog.
What is the dogs job? To bite the pilot if he touches the controls.
And the Pilot's job? To feed the dog.

It's an old pilot's joke oops that an old joke about pilot's

As a programmer, these kinds of crashes really make me wonder.

These have to be single-purpose computers, right? And it would make sense that these be closed systems - no network connection to anything. And they're probably running this one processs. So what's to make them crash?

The only thing I can think of is that they must have special video drivers for these screens that aren't written or tested too well.
