Airlines affected by the widespread recall of Airbus A320 jets to correct a software glitch must complete the required fix before the aircraft’s next scheduled flight, except when conducting a repositioning flight to a repair facility, according to an Airbus bulletin issued on Friday. This would involve some 6,000 jets, or over half the global fleet.
