Linux will be a passenger in every seat on Qantas’ Airbus A380s aeroplanes. All of the airline’s superjumbos – the first of which will commence flying next week – will have their in flight entertainment systems powered by the operating system.
The A380 is the first Qantas aircraft to utilise the Panasonic eX2 Inflight Entertainment System (IFE).
All of Panasonic’s X Series of IFE systems run on Linux.
