Passengers across Europe suffered disruptions on April 3, 2018, after the failure of a flight plan processing system at European network manager Eurocontrol, affecting around half of the day’s flights and several major airports in the continent. Eurocontrol has since fixed the problem and assured it posed no safety risks.
On April 3, 2018, The Antonov AN-225 Mriya, known as the “biggest airplane in the world”, took off from Gostomel airport (GML) in Kiev for its first commercial flight since its recent modernization. It landed two hours later in Leipzig airport (LEJ) without any trouble.
