Investigators are trying to determine the cause of a deadly plane crash in Ethiopia on Sunday involving a new aircraft model. Aircraft manufacturing company Boeing, announced a technical team will be travelling to the crash site of an Ethiopian Airlines flight that killed 157 people to provide technical assistance. This is the second crash of the Boeing 737 in five months as last October a Lion Air accident in Indonesia killed all 189 people on board. “The aviation experts are questioning the reliability of this Max aircraft, particularly on its flight control equipment. They are not questioning or doubting the safety of Ethiopian Airlines,” added Bekele.
