President Donald Trump has spoken out following Ethiopian Airlines Flight 302, which crashed on Sunday, killing all 157 passengers on board.
, in which all 189 passengers died. That plane crashed 12 minutes after takeoff into the Java Sea.
The Boeing 737 Max has been critiqued by airline consultants as being overloaded with features. Captain Ross Aimer, CEO of airline consulting and legal firm, told Business Insider that Boeing is renowned for its safe aircraft, but the 737 Max has"some stability issues." "The Boeing has always made fantastic, safe aircraft," Aimer said."But in the case of 737, a simple way to describe it is — how many times can you modify your old 1980s Honda Civic? This is basically what Boeing is doing with the 737."
"It was a very safe airplane for many, many years and the most popular commercial jet in service today," Aimer said."However, 50 years ago, when Boeing initially designed 737 -100 for Lufthsana, it was totally a different airplane. Now, it has evolved into something else."
