Boeing has identified a software glitch in some of its 737 MAX aircraft that could affect around 96 planes operated by Indian airlines Air India Express and Akasa Air. The issue may reduce automated flight guidance when pilots change the planned route after a missed landing attempt. Air India Express operates around 53 Boeing 737 MAX aircraft, while Akasa Air has 43. Boeing said it had informed all 737 operators about the issue last month and is developing a permanent software fix. Akasa Air said the glitch does not affect its operational safety. Air India Express has not issued a statement.
