Breaking News: Boeing's new 737 MAX 8 Grounded

 

先日、Ethiopian Airlinesの新型 B-737 Max 8がAddis Ababaからの離陸直後、Technical problems で引き返しの際墜落すると言う事故が有り、今世界中の航空会社が同機種のGround(飛行停止)を余儀なくされています。

 

CNN - Airlines in multiple countries have suspended the use of Boeing's new 737 MAX 8 aircraft over concerns about its safety, after an Ethiopian Airlines flight of the same model crashed Sunday killing all 157 on board.

Flight ET302 to Nairobi had just taken off from the Ethiopian capital of Addis Ababa Sunday when it reported technical problems and asked for permission to turn back. It crashed shortly afterwards.
As the crash investigation got underway, the Civil Aviation Administration of China ordered Monday that all domestic Boeing 737 MAX 8 jets be out of the air by 6 p.m. local time, due to its principle of "zero tolerance for safety hazards."
China has one of the world's largest fleets of Boeing 737 MAX 8, operating 97 of the planes, according to Chinese state-run media.
