Indian airlines have completed urgent software upgrades on 323 operational Airbus A320 family aircraft to fix a flight‑control issue triggered by intense solar radiation.
The update followed a global safety warning from Airbus, which flagged 338 planes for scrutiny. Major carriers including IndiGo, Air India, and Air India Express quickly carried out the upgrades, with IndiGo updating all 200 of its A320 jets and the others completing nearly their entire fleets.
Despite initial concerns about flight disruptions, airlines reported minimal impact on schedules. All operational aircraft are now compliant, ensuring safe and timely flight operations across India.
