10th of March, 2019 - Ethiopian Airlines Flight 302, a Boeing 737 MAX, crashes, killing 157 people on board.
Ethiopian Airlines Flight 302 was a scheduled international passenger flight from Bole International Airport in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, to Jomo Kenyatta International Airport in Nairobi, Kenya. It crashed on this day in 2019, shortly after takeoff from Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, killing all 157 people on board.
The crash was attributed to a combination of factors, including a malfunction of the Maneuvering Characteristics Augmentation System (MCAS), pilot error, and inadequate training on how to respond to the MCAS malfunction.
The aftermath of the Ethiopian Airlines Flight 302 crash led to significant investigations, regulatory changes, and legal actions. Boeing faced scrutiny for the design and certification of the 737 MAX aircraft, resulting in the grounding of all 737 MAX planes worldwide. Investigations by aviation authorities and independent bodies were conducted to determine the causes of the crash and identify safety improvements. Families of the victims pursued legal actions against Boeing, and the company reached settlements with some of them.
