The first being that the plane's fly-by-wire systems would also be rebooted, and that until the controls were active again, the plane would just keep doing exactly what it was currently doing.
Another one would be that the manual hydraulic and electromechanical systems would kick in, but in an unknown condition, jerking the plane around in the sky, and possibly subjecting passengers and crew to weird accelerations.
The third one would be that the system reboots quickly but goes through diagnostics, and as a result, all control surfaces go through their full range of motion, resulting in something much like the second scenario. |
