Pilot reported flight-control problems before Ethiopian Airlines plane went down
The Ethiopian Airlines pilot of the jet that crashed, killing 157 people, had reported flight-control problems, the company said on Wednesday as the disaster continued to rock the global airline industry. The Boeing 737 Max 8 went down six minutes after takeoff from Addis Ababa en route to Nairobi, killing everyone on board, including 18 Canadians. Begashaw said the flight data and voice recorders will be sent to Germany for analysis, though Germany refuted this later Wednesday. Air Canada and WestJet Airlines operate a total of 37 Boeing 737 Max 8 jets. Begashaw said the Ethiopian Airlines pilot had been trained on the plane after the October Lion Air crash.
