A preliminary report released on Friday revealed that a millisecond-software defect was responsible for the cancellation of over 2,000 flights in and out of the United Kingdom. The technical failure, which occurred on September 8, caused widespread travel disruptions and mayhem across British air networks.
NATS, formerly known as National Air Traffic Services, identified the software glitch as the root cause of the incident. The findings were detailed in the initial assessment published at the end of the week, outlining the technical nature of the disruption that paralyzed significant portions of UK air traffic.
