I don't know anyone who believes those claims, which have become a kind of shared joke in the software security community.

Nobody in the office here (I work on IFE & avionics software) believes those claims either.

I'm simply commenting on the notion that any packet he sent an IFE caused the plane to literally, perceptibly move. I don't need or want to derive the probability of that having occurred from first principles.
