Ever have one of those days when you felt like you ended a bumpy flight into LaGuardia clutching the airsick bag with white knuckles, only to realize at baggage claim that your luggage was on the way to Salt Lake? If you haven’t it’s only a matter of time.

Now imagine a world where somebody could inflict that sort of pain intentionally. Well, maybe not the bumpy flight part, but certainly the baggage boondoggle. At least in theory. In practice, though, a New York airport was recently attacked by ransomware, so the door is ajar, as they say. More details on that hack are available here. For our purposes, though, it is enough to remember that airline navigation and flight controls have been hacked through that cabin entertainment portals while in flight, and now the airport vulnerability bubbles up into public awareness. Makes the 1970s movie “Airplane” seem less and less funny. Except for the autopilot sequence. That’s timeless.
