PARIS: Airbus on Friday warned of potential travel disruption as it upgrades some 6,000 operational A320 aircraft, after an incident on a JetBlue flight last month. The European plane-maker on Friday instructed its clients to take “immediate precautionary action” after evaluating the incident. “Intense solar radiation may corrupt data critical to the functioning of flight controls,” Airbus stated, adding that “a significant number of A320 Family aircraft currently in-service” may be affected.

Europe's Airbus said it was ordering an immediate software change on a significant number of its best-selling A320-family jets.
