Aye, Things like that the G3000 (Garmin avionics suite for light aircraft) that now do real time 3D terrain generation so that less experienced pilots can avoid controlled flight into terrain (literally the way they describe when a pilot in control smashes into a mountain).
My suspicion is that modern computerised avionics are on balance a life saver but I'd love to know by how much.
I ended up watching videos of modern avionics in light aircraft on youtube a while back (as you do) and I find that kind of programming fascinating, couldn't find much out about the actual hardware/software side of things though I did gather it runs a custom OS.
