This paper examines the ethical and operational concerns related to Airbus technologies, focusing on software and hardware operation, as well as the significance of software sanity and regression testing for critical systems like autopilot. Key topics include the safeguards for electronics within aircraft, battery monitoring, and compliance with FAA regulations. Environmental impacts of lithium polymer batteries and styrofoam body production are discussed, highlighting risks and challenges in waste disposal and recycling. The objective is to ensure safe and responsible aircraft operation while minimizing harm to the public and environment.
