just now (569+ words) A JetBlue altitude incident has forced regulators to order an urgent A320 software rollback. Global airlines are reportedly rushing to patch the software on their Airbus A320-family jets following a recently discovered glitch. This glitch affects the system that helps calculate the nose angle (angle of attack), a critical part of the flight-control system.
