Line 13: ==Major incidents== [[China Airlines Flight 140]] crashed, causing many deaths, due to a misunderstanding about the manual overrides for the [[autopilot]]. The Take-Off/Go Around system had been activated to abort a landing. It was programmed to ignore manual controls in this situation but the human pilots tried to continue the landing. The conflicting control signals from the pilots and autopilot then resulted in the aircraft stalling and crashing. The autopilot for this aircraft type was then reprogrammed so that it would never ignore a manual override.<ref>{{citation \|url=http://books.google.com/books?id=SG07muS_S2EC \|page=151 \|title=Taming HAL: designing interfaces beyond 2001 \|author=Asaf Degani}}</ref> ==See also== [[Communication cord]] [[Dead man's handle]] *[[Panic button]] == References ==
