WAR IN THE AIR; Thousands of Brit Holiday Flights Attacked by Extremely Dangerous Russian Jamming

The electronic attacks render satnavs useless so aircraft are unsure of routes and struggle to tell others where they are.

BBC 22 APR 2024

Ryanair said that if location systems such as GPS are not functioning, the crew switches to alternate systems

Bogus data forced planes to swerve and dive to avoid phantom obstacles that were not really there.

Industry sources warn it is extremely dangerous.

In eight months to the end of March, 2,309 Ryanair flights and 1,368 Wizz Air planes logged satnav problems in the Baltic region.

Also hit were 82 British Airways flights, seven from Jet2, four EasyJet flights and seven operated by TUI.

Interference from Vladimir Putin’s forces includes jamming and spoofing.

Jamming drowns out genuine signals from satellites including GPS and Europe’s Galileo system.

Spoofing uses bogus signals to trick aircraft into thinking they are somewhere they are not.

An industry source said: “The information from the Russians is spurious. It is extremely dangerous.”
