✍️ Thousands of Airbus planes have been grounded due to a software issue that can be caused by intense solar radiation, affecting flight control computers and leading to delays and cancellations.
👉 Around 6,000 A320 planes affected, half of Airbus' global fleet 👉 Most planes will be able to fly again after a software update 👉 Older planes will need physical replacement of onboard computers 👉 Disruption expected at airports, with some flights cancelled or delayed
