They supposed to be on ground. Why are they flying? BTW seems to be a very safe airplane every time it goes up in the sky something happens! Great job Boeing!

The crashes occur during departures. The article doesn't specify how soon after take off it was when engine problems occurred. Did they reach altitude or not will determine if there are any commonalities with the known MCAS system issue or possible engine stall.

Why in the hell was this plane even in the air, zero excuses for SouthwestAir, this plane has been grounded. Now they are jeopardizing the lives of pilots and people on the ground. Unacceptable!

...Edinburgh

Smart move If some features are optional and sold separately at the absence of which two flights nosedived then it’s a good move. But all US airlines have bought those features for additional cost.

Boeing 737 Max 8 planes lacked two safety features that cost extraThe optional safety features - an angle of attack indicator and a disagree light - are not mandated by the Federal Aviation Administration and are only installed if the airline pays for it. How much would it have cost to add that to the package at no added charge, V the cost of hundreds dead, lawsuits flying thicker than aircraft? Reminds of 'Unsafe at Any Speed' from US auto pennywise pound foolishness Forgive me if I’m missing something, but if the planes crash without them, surely they shouldn’t be optional? So Greed behind the Boeing crashes

This is not good, surely the victims families will no doubt be pursuing compensation from the airline In gaming terms, these were the optional but essential DLCs that were not bought to complete the story mission. Didn't realize that this 'extra' practice has spread to airline industry as well! Proved to be a very expensive saving.
