No, it was due to bugs in the software of the G1000. Bugs aren't
acceptable in safety-of-life systems. No matter how the aircraft is
configured, there's no excuse for a reboot.


You have no way of knowing that. You got your information from the same
place I did. Right here in this newsgroup.



Besides, any good instruction includes what to do if you have an
electrical/system failure.

A reboot is not an electrical system failure.


As you read this I want you to reach down and unplug your computer and plug
it back in. I'll wait.............


Did it reboot?
