Flight 302 crashed shortly after take-off from Addis Ababa in March 2019, killing all 157 people on board. The United States National Transportation Safety Board or NTSB says Ethiopian inspectors did not pay enough attention to crew training and emergency procedures in their report. The NTSB also accused their Ethiopian counterparts of focusing on design issues at the expense of the crew's training and reaction. The accident involving Flight 302 followed another incident five months earlier, when the same model crashed in Indonesia, killing 189 people. Ethiopia was among the last countries to return the 737-MAX to service.
