"Glitch" is a woefully inadqueate term for all of the wiring issues that this plane encountered.

A Glitch?!! Part of the wiring design was done in Germany, and the other in France...they use DIFFERENT SOFTWARE...the designs didn't match up. What a friggin screw up.

I wonder how long it will be before the wiring wears through its insulation. I'm guessing half the french solution to this was thinning the insulation, and allowing tighter clearance through holes.
Ever own a french car???

Wasn't there a recent story about french cars bursting into flames due to faulty wiring?

Or how about minimizing wake turbulence that requires planes to stay twice as far apart as a 747. Or how about the fact that their sales are made in US Dollars but their sales are make in Euros. A great reverse currency hedge that is guaranteed to lose money no matter what the currency.
