More to the point, FAS regulations would absolutely forbid any such event. They probably mandate testing of the updates before returning to airplane to service.
In service to the pun, there is a relatively famous demo of using erlang for embedded development where they show off hot code reloading of a drone's flight software while it's in flight.

Completely unlike the safety standards for cars.
Although if they did it would give a fantastic new meaning to "over the air" :-)

Which has nothing to do with a bad update being installed during routing maintenance and only failing in flight. Or while driving.
I am assuming/hoping that testing from Boeing/Airbus is far more stringent than that of Jeep !
Boeing doesn't exactly have the best reputation.
