Investigation finds faulty power supply part caused KC-135 nosedives
By Rachel S. Cohen

The Air Force’s KC-135 Stratotanker fleet has returned to regular operations after the service discovered that a faulty power supply was to blame for causing two jets to unexpectedly nosedive earlier this year.
Problems with the power supply, a subcomponent of the autopilot system, in May led the tankers to malfunction and suddenly tilt toward the ground. Neither jet crashed because of the issue.
“[The subcomponent] was replaced and the system performed as designed,” Capt. Frederick Wallace, an Air Mobility Command spokesperson, said Wednesday.

I'm a bit surprised that a vital subsystem like autopilot doesn't have redundant power supplies, so that if one fails the other supplies full load.

If, as anti-Covid-vaxxers claim,

, The Vaccine is deadly, where in the US have Pfizer and Moderna hidden the millions of bodies of those who died of "vaccine injury"? Is reality a Big Pharma Shill?
Millions now living should have died. Anti-Covid-Vaxxer ghouls hardest hit.
