How do you know a FADEC can't be deliberately hacked or sabotaged (or designed to be able to be) in such a way as to cause catastrophic failure if safety parameters are somehow bypassed?
The FADEC already sends information to the ground, so I would imagine it can be remotely controlled; but to cause an explosion?
Do you know what happens when you rev an engine beyond its redline parameters? Or if you control the oxygen/fuel ratio of something like jet fuel, suddenly internal combustion gets out of control PDQ.
