Big projects that do not take little things into account tend to have
problems. Some designer guy does not realize that, due to the proximity
of high current wiring, one should put MOVs on the wires to the fuel
level sensors in the 747's main fuel tank, a current transient induced
spark at a sensor ignites the hydrocarbon vapours therein, and a couple
of hundred die.
