EthiopianAirlinesCrash: Two black boxes from the Boeing 737 MAX aeroplane that crashed in Ethiopia arrived in Paris for expert analysis as regulators around the world awaited word on whether it was safe to resume flying the jets.
Paris/Addis Ababa - Two black boxes from the Boeing 737 MAX aeroplane that crashed in Ethiopia arrived on Thursday in Paris for expert analysis, officials said, as regulators around the world awaited word on whether it was safe to resume flying the jets.
Following the lead of other global aviation regulators unnerved by the second crash involving a 737 MAX in less than five months, the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration issued orders on Wednesday for the planes to be grounded. The FAA along with the National Transportation Safety Board, the Ethiopian civil aviation authority, and Boeing, have been investigating the crash at the site, some 60 km outside the Ethiopian capital.
Both the Ethiopian Airlines crash and a Lion Air crash in Indonesia occurred just minutes after take-off. Deliveries of Boeing's best-selling 737 MAX jets were effectively frozen, though production continued, after the United States joined a global grounding of the narrow-body model over safety concerns, industry sources said.
