Seems that carnival has been plagued with various mishaps over the years. Makes you wonder how this could happen



Perhaps Boeing was the contractor on the "avoidance" software...


I was cleaning out my old magazines and I came up with this article. I
was struck by what they said toward the end.

"Boeing meanwhile has been using the software widely to develop and
support its commercial airplanes, military aircraft, and spacecraft.
The company used Pegasus 5 in the development of its wide-bodied
747-8—the longest passenger aircraft in the world—and the latest
versions of the 787 Dreamliner. Pegasus 5 simulations also played a
role in developing the 737 MAX, which first flew in early 2016, and
the 777X, which is slated to fly in 2020."

“Today, much of the uncertainty of analysis and design has been
eliminated,” and much of that is thanks to Pegasus 5.

In May 2016, when Gregg wrote a letter on behalf of Boeing encouraging
NASA to consider Pegasus 5 for the Agency’s Software of the Year
Award, he wrote that “without PEG5, we would not be able to
efficiently design and analyze the wide array of aerospace products
that we build at the Boeing Company.”
