Two possibly useful pieces of information: 1) The Flight Control Electronics (FCE) is not the same thing as the "Core System" which was recently won by Smiths/Windriver/Ada Core. 2) To the best of my knowledge, the contract for 7E7 FCE has not yet been awarded. Anyone seen a press release? I'm sure the development approach, languages and all that stuff will become far clearer once we know who's actually won the work! - Rod
