Boeing has moved to ground its entire global 737 MAX aircraft fleet after an Ethiopian Airline crash killed 157 people. Ethiopian authorities will deliver their first report on the crash of Ethiopian Airlines Flight 302 on Thursday. The pilots of the doomed Ethiopian flight initially followed Boeing’s emergency steps for dealing with a sudden downturn of the nose of their plane but could not regain control, according to a published report. The Wall Street Journal reported on Wednesday that pilots of the Ethiopian Airlines Boeing 737 Max turned off a flight-control system but still could not get the plane to climb. In a statement, Boeing urged against speculating before the preliminary report and flight data from the plane are released.
