One other air-travel incident that I forgot, although this one wasn't
actually a crash:  the CAAC 747 near-crash over the Pacific.  Alas, this
doesn't support Ric's comment either, since this was the result of
correctly-functioning software attempting to carry out impossible orders.
Once again, putting more judgement in the software might have led to the
discovery of the problem before it became critical.
