They’re doing it because it’s Boeing. The planes are safe.
Who makes Boeings? USA or England?
Someone will start accusing the manufacturer of sabotage.

Chinese SABOTAGE?
How many of these planes in first-world airline fleets have had problems? Not just crashes, but any problems after take off. Is this a design error, maintenance error, or pilot error?
Too much of a coincidence and too many similarities to ignore. The new device and system in Boeing seems to misread climb and automatically correct it, resulting in a nose dive. Boeing needs to investigate.
Lawyers will be circling like sharks.
This what happens when you fly by computer, and the computer has primary control. Way too much can go wrong. We are not talking about a video game here. We are talking about real lives.
“The 737 MAX gained FAA certification on March 8, 2017”
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boeing_737_MAX#Accidents_and_incidents
Two crashes in two years looks horrible.
hmmmmmmm. seems like the Chinese have had problems getting their new domestically manufactured airliner certified in the us.
The problem is engineers say it ought to work even when in reality it doesn’t
So, over one-third of 350+ Boeing 737 Max are now grounded.
Here are some FACTS:
Ethiopean Airlines is one of the finest in the world. The statements by those against the company demonstrate ignorance and broad brushing rather than treating everyone and everything as individuals.
Boeing had the entire fleet of 787s grounded due to the lithium batteries that could catch fire. They are not immune to design defects.
FACT: The 737 Max has been behind schedule, mostly due to the new engines. There are hundreds of planes parked without engines because CFM had a few problems with early versions of the Leap engines.
FACT: The Lion Air investigation is not complete. But the pilots union criticized Boeing for not disclosing some of the safety information on the new aircraft. Additionally, there is a lack of simulators to train pilots for special situations specific to this type
FACT: China benefits from 737 Max production and has no interest in hurting its own economy.
The Chinese don’t mess around. No use taking risks until the causes of the failures can be identified and rectified.
So African and Chinese and Indonesian pilots can’t fly them properly?
Is it possible that the only 737s crashing are ones that were built in China?
Time to switch to IL-76s.
IF this is the same problem encountered by Lion Air, then this sounds like the crew didn’t react fast enough to turn off the trim switches. Everyone in the MAX community knew what to do only days after the first (similar) crash. Sounds like this could be the intersection of an airplane issue, and a training issue.
