Dozens of American flights hit by iPad glitch

In the US, dozens of American Airlines flights were delayed mid week after pilots’ iPads (used to distribute flight plans and other information to the crew) crashed.

In many cases, the screens went blank for the captain and co-pilot, so they didn’t have access to flight plans.

The iPads were introduced as a weight saving and efficiency device at American in 2013.
