The Boeing 737 Max 8 needs to have their repair log checked immediately.

Two crashes of a new jet within 8 months is significant. Does this jet adapt to all forms of "fly by wire" or lack thereof? I think they need to be scrutinized by the airlines and Boeing to be sure there is little to no problem in their operations.

Are there common maintenance issues cropping up with these jets? Are the maintenance problems easily solved and prove to be reliable or are they solved only to occur again? Software vs. Hardware.

For the second time in less than six months, (click here) a brand-new Boeing aircraft has crashed just minutes into a flight.

All 157 people on board the Ethiopian Airlines flight from Addis Ababa that crashed on Sunday morning have died, the airline has confirmed.

The tragedy follows the Lion Air flight that went down over the Java Sea in late October, killing all 189 people on board....

I am so sorry to hear of this crash. So many lives lost and families are suffering. My sincerest sympathies to the families and friends. It is a terrible accident. I understand there were Americans and United Nations workers among those lost with this crash. So, very sorry.
