STOCKHOLM (Reuters) -Finnair is pausing flights to Tartu in eastern Estonia for one month due to GPS disturbances in the area, the Finnish airline said on Monday.
GPS jamming and spoofing have grown worse in Eastern Europe, the Black Sea and the Middle East, according to industry group OpsGroup. GPS is a growing part of aviation replacing radio beams used to guide planes towards landing.
