European aircraft manufacturer Airbus announced on Friday the immediate implementation of a software update for a large part of its A320 family fleet. According to aviation sources, the changes will affect approximately 6,000 aircraft – more than half of all A320s currently in operation worldwide.
The company explained that the decision was made after an incident with one of the aircraft of this series: during the flight, damage to critical data in the control systems was recorded, which, according to preliminary conclusions, could have been caused by intense solar radiation.
