A growing list of airlines around the world are grounding their fleets of Boeing 737 Max 8 aircraft in the wake of the Ethiopian Airlines crash that killed all 157 people on board.

The problem is the engine design! Why the fuck would they make it fuel efficient and place it more forward making it pitch up. The sensors are also defective. Then the MCAS gets conflicting readings. No redundancies at all. Very scary!! They should just put back the old engine design or retire this series all together.
Horrible
😂😂😆😆ðŸ’â€Â🇧🇯ðŸ¤â€ÂðŸ¤â€Â
Did you just blame the pilot with out any evidence!! Wow you have the audacity to blame NOW we lost lives. That is the reason they are not going to bring the black boxes to the USA
wow the most among the dead were Kenyans then Canadians. The Americans were the least among them dead
RIP
Boeing USA liarrrrrrrrrr
Eighteen Canadians. Passports from 32 countries.
99% they will push the blame on the pilot. This is America style.
They're going to blame the pilots!?!?!
Pirots must get a refreshment class
It’s time to install emergency parachutes that deploy from the tops of airplanes in the event of emergencies ; you can potentially save the passengers, crews on board and the airplane itself. It can slowdown the descend of the plane .. install them in 3 separate parachutes just in case one of them fails.. stop making excuses and start innovating .. too many lives LOST.
Airbus >> Boeing
Just sad 😥😠157 RIP
Fuck USA 🇺🇸, all they care about is money and stakeholders
Rip
Not a mention of MCAS and how it removes control from the pilot….terrible reporting
RIP..people should avoid this flying coffin now..
“[The 737] MAX's two engines are powered by the latest fuel-efficient technology. Because the engines are larger and have more thrust, Boeing had to mount them farther forward on the wing and slightly higher — basically so they wouldn't strike the ground on takeoff or landing. To compensate for the engine's mounting position and greater thrust, Boeing designed an automatic system called MCAS (Maneuvering Characteristics Augmentation System) that would prevent the nose from pitching too high when pilots hand-fly the airplane at slower speeds, typically during takeoff and landing. The nose pitching too high translates into an angle of attack (the angle between the wings and the air flow) that could potentially cause an aerodynamic stall.
What's problematic is that the MCAS system is invisible to pilots. As a matter of fact, Boeing failed to inform many airlines via the airplane operating handbook that it even existed. If the system has a fault, and it senses an aerodynamic stall that doesn't exist, pilots are left trying to wrestle an airplane that is heading for the ground because MCAS is designed to nudge the nose down, a basic recovery maneuver for all airplanes that are approaching a stall.

Rest in peace and sending prayers
This hurts. God bless the souls of the ones who died
They gonna blame the pilots like they always do while they gain time to fix the problem. Is all about $$$$$$$$
Do not pull that cheap shot to the Indonesian pilots. Boeing failed to tell pilots around the world about the automatic system that puts the plane to a nosedive.
Rest In Peace to all lost peoples
Just use these aircrafts in the middle east. It wouldn't matter if all were crashed after take offs.
Says a lot about the US. It's money over EVERYTHING in this country. China on the other hand, at least is going to take them out of their fleet and see what the issue was. Not only that, but the FED propped up their stock today otherwise it would have severely tanked the market. A lot of shady shit going on in this country.
Boeing's CEO, do the right thing or you may be losing your job before you know it.
If I have plan to fly I would be calling the airline to see if my plane is a Max 8 and if it is Max 8 I am not getting on it. Now I think every person with a brain should do the same. How is that not ground for grounding all Max 8 planes.
Only 350 were delivered since 2017. Within 2 years two Brand New 737 Max 8 crashed within a time frame of 5 months under similar circumstances…you don't need to be an expert to see the red flags.
RIP to everyone who perished on that flight
We don’t know all the facts. IMHO it will most likely point to pilot error… I’m not sure that safety rules/ procedures are the same as in the US…. Guess we’ll have to wait and see. My condolences to the familiesðŸ˜â€Â
