Ethiopian Airlines is one of the three top airlines in Africa. The decision was made following the fatal crash of Ethiopian Airlines' 302 flight enroute from Addis Ababa to Nairobi. This wasn't the Boeing 737 Max aircraft's first incident. The 737 Max was the 12th derivative model of the 737 aircraft, which was first certified half a century earlier in 1967. The US House Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure conducted an 18-month investigation into design, development, and certification of the 737 Max aircraft, and related matters.
