Trojan-ridden warning system implicated in Spanair crash
Malware may have been a contributory cause of a fatal Spanair crash that killed 154 people two years ago.
Spanair flight number JK 5022 crashed with 172 on board moments after taking off from Madrid's Barajas Airport on a scheduled flight to Las Palmas on 20 August 2008. Just 18 survived the crash and subsequent fire aboard the McDonnell Douglas MD-82 aircraft.
