Indian airlines wrap up software upgrades on A320 fleet following Airbus safety warning
The DGCA on Sunday confirmed that all domestic airlines have finished installing critical software updates on 323 Airbus A320-family aircraft, closing out an urgent safety call by the manufacturer triggered by a potential glitch in the jets’ flight-control systems.
The directive came after Airbus flagged that unusually strong solar radiation could, in rare cases, corrupt data processed by components linked to flight controls on a large number of A320-series planes. The aviation giant had warned that the corrective software patch might cause short-term operational disruptions across global fleets.
