If the Ethiopian Airways crash is similar to that of Lion Air (both of which were 737 max 8 planes) then it's more of a pilot error than the plane's. You see, Boeing installed a new security system that some of these pilots failed to learn, it's called MCAS. It was responsible for the Lion Air crash, all the pilots had to do to avoid the crash was to push two switches.

If it's the case for Ethiopian Airways, then it'll be cheaper to educate pilots on the new systems, especially the ones that have the "I've been flying 737s for years" attitude.

But if there's another fault, especially one that can be traced to all other 737 max 8s, then instant grounding is the right choice.

This is the reason why countries like USA and Canada have not grounded the plane yet.

Na Wetin we sabi be this. You already know the error and what the pilots could have done to avert it, just two switches and yet, the pilots did not know. Do you work in Boeing company?

Ignorance is a disease Boeing is the company manufacturing airbus

I don’t necessarily agree with what the guy you quoted said but they are made by different manufacturers

twosquare:
Saw it in the news not too long that one company, Lion Air wants to switch to Airbus after this Ethiopian incident.... Tell me, is that expensive than Boeing that they don't consider it or what?

Yes, I saw this news on Bloomberg Markets news.

Hmmm...this is a very, very bad news for Boeing to say the least.

Boeing has been existing for over 50 years more than Airbus.

The UK just banned the 737's max 8 on their airspace.

Other better country dey talk, Nigeria sef dey put mouth
The planes we have are even worse than Boeing planes. Mumu

you don't have the latest model in your air space and that is an achievement...

us and europe have not grounded the boeing 737 max 8 fyi...

mumu country that cannot even run airline...

This is not true.

The UK, Norway have both banned them.

They failed to include the instructions on those two switches on aircraft delivery and only included it in a bulletin or so after the Lion Air crash.

This information is NOT correct. Air Italy launched in Nigeria this January and they use Boeing 737 Max 8. As a matter of fact, one is due to arrive Lagos tonight from Milan.

shogsman:



Explain why China grounded the aircraft then

With the ongoing "trade/tech war" between China and the US, I'm honestly not surprised.

But Airpeace has ordered for 10 Boeing 737 Max 8.

Australia and UK are also in trade wars with the US?

golddust6000:
737-8 is different from 737, it was upgraded, the airplane has difficulties to operate
Two 737-8 had crotch within 5month of upgrading

Yeah, I believe I made distinctions where necessary.

Please what's the ETA so I can be on the lookout for it as planes fly over my area and I do look out the window when they fly over. Just an hobby.

As I typed this, Qatar Airline just flew past.

Better.

Just two switches! Is that the first time, the pilot was flying Boeing 737max? Stop jumping into conclusion please. Stop mocking the dead ones please! No body can even guess what actually transpired, even Boeing manufacturer, but you are here claiming expert perhaps without knowing a cockpit!

For your information, Boeing manufacturer will use everything within their disposal to deny and cover up. You think USA Mafias care about your safety? Everything is about lobbyist group; USA capitalism, is man eats man (The winner takes it all). European leaders are more humane and caring about their citizens than USA. Even USA citizens have suffered from "vested interests" of certain groups. Provided it benefits them, they careless about others. Take a look at gun control, health insurance, environmental issues, genetic modified foods etc

What u don't know is that Boeing manufactures some parts for Airbus especially avionics parts

When better countries dey talk nigeria will also be talking. Are most of the planes flying nigeria airspace not worse off than the Eithopian boeing 737 that crashed on sunday? Its only in nigeria u see rickety looking planes with patched tires and horrible sounding engines flying all over the place. Planes that ought to have been grounded since 1946 still flying our airspace. God help nigeria.

Thanks for letting me know that but Boeing doesn't own Airbus. The are two separate manufacturers.

That accident was pilot error, nothing is wrong with that plane. If u have seen the footage of the takeoff u will understand what happened. The angle the pilot took off with was too steep, the tail that balances the plane hit the ground and broke off because of the high angle. The entire airport knew the plane would crash immediately but were praying the pilot could get balance and turn back because of the heavy smoke from the tail of the ✈ . This is the reason it didn't take more than 6 minutes to crash because he tried turning back but couldn't get the balance again. If there was a river close to the airport I believe that plane would have not exploded, the pilot would have headed for the river instead of turning back, maybe that would have saved some lives. Addisababa is 7000ft above mean sea level so there is no way they can even have a river around. I v been there many times so I know how the terrain looks.

Even the Boeing 737 that crashed is still saver than our local flight
