Both the Ethiopian Airlines and Lion Air flights were brand-new Boeing 737 MAX 8 planes, and both crashed minutes into their flight
Chinese aviation authorities on Monday told airlines in the country to ground all their Boeing 737 MAX 8 aircraft, citing the need for"strict control of safety risks." And Boeing has postponed the debut of its new 777X jetliner, which was scheduled for this week, as it deals with the fallout from Sunday's disaster in Ethiopia.All 157 people on board a 737 MAX 8 operated by Ethiopian Airlines were killed when the plane crashed shortly after takeoff on Sunday morning.
Boeing plans to make 59 new 737s each month this year — more than four times the number of 787s, Boeing's next-best seller. Southwest Airlines has the largest fleet of 737 MAX 8 airplanes, followed by RyanAir and FlyDubai, according to Boeing. American Airlines and United also fly the MAX 8. Delta does not fly any 737 MAX variants.
