Boeing must never disrespect Ethiopian Airlines againShare this article: Share Tweet Share Share Share Email ShareVictor Kgomoeswana Ethiopian Airlines (ET) made another noteworthy headline last week. What made the crash of flight ET 302 spectacular was not only the death of 150 or so passengers and crew, but the arrogance with which Boeing initially handled everything. The bottom line remains that the 737 MAX 8 had a technical fault due to the aircraft design. The new bigger 737 MAX 8 shape shifted the engine of the aircraft forward, without any major redesign of the 737 fuselage - which apparently has not changed in five decades. This was aggravated by, according to the US Congress report, sloppiness and dereliction by Boeing and the Federal Aviation Administration.
