Boeing: crashed and grounded

The Hindu  

The story so far The crash of an Ethiopian Airlines plane, five months after the Lion Air crash in Indonesia, has forced Boeing to ground all its 737 MAX aircraft. On October 29 last year, a two-month-old Boeing 737 MAX 8, operated by low-cost airline Lion Air of Indonesia, crashed approximately 12 minutes after being airborne, killing its 189 passengers and crew. It was in two quick stages, which impacted the operations of the country’s two 737 MAX operators, private airlines Jet Airways and SpiceJet, with a fleet of 5 and 12 aircraft respectively. In a notice, dated March 11, taking into account “compliance of all manufacturer Standard Operating Procedures/operations circulars and Federal Aviation Administration emergency Airworthiness Directives,” it advised additional actions for airline engineers and maintenance crew such as “no minimum equipment list release” — a list which allows aircraft operation, under specified conditions — if there were control system red flags.
