Ethiopian Airlines jet 'struck by an object on take-off killing 157 in crash'

That sent the pitch of the plane downward and ultimately crashing into the ground, two aviation sources familiar with the investigation told ABC News.Earlier today, Boeing released a statement that said, "we urge caution against speculating and drawing conclusions on the findings prior to the release of the flight data and the preliminary report."

Earlier this week it was revealed one of the pilots shouted "pitch up, pitch" just before the doomed jet went down. An anti-stalling system on the plane - a Boeing 737 Max -has since been blamed for the disaster which made headlines around the world. The paper - which says it's spoken to people close to the crash probe - says the information it has "paints a picture of a catastrophic failure that quickly overwhelmed the flight crew".
