On November 28, Airbus issued an urgent Airworthiness Directive concerning a mandatory software update for its A320 aircraft, impacting SAA and LIFTs fleets.
An analysis by Airbus revealed that intense solar radiation may corrupt data critical to the functioning of flight controls in a number of in-service A320 aircraft.
The directive mandated the completion of the software installation by 23h59 UTC on Saturday, November 29.
