Why does the FAA allow Boeing to fly this I kept saying this they are new fleet of faulty aircraft and they are not pulled I am going to happy to see Boeing stock nosedive tomorrow. If our cars have problems they are required to be taken in to fix problems yet the 737 Max can still fly this is crazy
facts

they flew concords for years knowing they were unsafe.

Concorde was a danger for 20 years

It's the second new 737 Max to crash, this one is similar to the Lion Air, as it happened several minutes after takeoff.

The Lion Air crash wasn't pilot error.


Thats crazy. We always think "planes are safe af because its all automated anyway" but what if it's "planes aren't safe because their computers fail like mad all the time"

6 Side.
Ethiopian Airlines said those killed included 32 Kenyans, 18 Canadians, nine Ethiopians, eight Americans, eight Chinese and eight Italians. The victims were from more than 30 countries, including India, Britain, the Netherlands, France, Egypt, Russia and Israel.

I bet a good chunk of those canadians, if not all, connected from the Toronto-Addis flight that departed yesterday morning from here. It gets in around 7ish am local time in addis. That morning block in addis has alotta departures to destinations within the continent and to the middle east.



That’s the flight profile right after take off. Looks like it peaked at 5000ft and plummeted shortly thereafter.

Look at the airspeed and rate of descent :sadcam::mjcry:

They need to ground these aircraft worldwide. No use issuing airworthiness directives.

There is a clear design flaw with this shyt and its killing people. Pilot radioed ATC and said he wanted to turn back but never made it.

Even spoke to local air canada pilots who said the plane is trash to fly and they’ve complained about it and hate flying it.

I'd hate to die in an accident
RIP to the victims and thoughts for their loved ones
Boeing needs to give some real answers
The Lion Air crash was bad enough (was just seeing this article last month), with this new crash those 737 MAX should be grounded until further notice imo.
I'm sure if the general public really new how most airlines companies operate a lot less people would feel safe flying.
