Unlike with Boeing they didn't feature intentional obfuscation and fraud, but very similar themes of the airplane's software model of what's going on diverging from the pilots' and resulting in disaster.

Along with stories like the Therac-25, this is one of my "favorite" engineering stories relevant to my profession.
