Here the individual processing items are flight plans, but the concept is more general. They could be “requests” to a web server, they could be “tasks” in an async worker node, they could be “transactions” in a database, if you do any compute with a work item it can fail. You need to put a big “try-catch” around it and add a field in your database or queue or remote procedure call system to mark them as failed. One work item failing shouldn’t be “super unexpected”. Even if you can’t name the exact conditions under witch it might fail.
