In a demo flight on Tuesday, Ethiopian Airlines flew passengers on a Boeing 737 MAX 8 plane. Some relatives of those killed in the Ethiopian Airlines crash were angered by the decision to resume flying the 737 MAX. A lawyer for victims of the Ethiopian Airlines Flight 302 accused the airline of having failed families on many fronts. Ethiopian Airlines said in a statement on Jan. 22 that the decision to resume flights came “after intense recertification” by multiple regulatory bodies. Ethiopia is among the last countries to return the 737 MAX to service; it is already flying in the United States, Europe, China, Australia, Japan and Indonesia.
