Airbus warns of major global flight disruption after discovering that computers on more than 6,000 aircraft—mainly A320s—are vulnerable to solar interference. The issue emerges after a JetBlue flight from Mexico to the U.S. suffers a sudden altitude drop in October when solar radiation corrupts elevation-control data. Immediate software updates are ordered, triggering mass cancellations, especially in the U.S. over a holiday weekend. UK airports see limited disruption, but worldwide delays continue.
