Paris – The European aircraft manufacturer Airbus has to install new software on thousands of aircraft in its A320 family. Airbus said on Friday that an incident involving an A320 family aircraft showed that intense sunlight could damage data that is important for control. “Airbus recognizes that these recommendations will result in service disruptions for passengers and customers,” the company said. According to industry sources, around 6,000 aircraft are affected, more than half of the global fleet.
