OTTAWA - Canada on Wednesday became the latest nation to ground Boeing 737 MAX aircraft, citing potential safety concerns after an Ethiopian Airlines Boeing MAX crashed on Sunday, killing 157 people.Canadian Transport Minister Marc Garneau told a news conference that Ottawa would stop 737 MAX 8 and 9 jets from leaving, arriving in or flying over Canada.
The ban is notable, since Canada usually works very closely with the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration . Garneau said there had been “absolutely no political pressure” from Washington after Canada informed it of the grounding. “This is not conclusive, but it is something that points possibly in that direction and at this point we feel that threshold has been crossed and that is why we are taking these measures,” he said.
A U.S. official told Reuters the FAA was aware of the satellite data Garneau had cited, but called it inconclusive.
There's something very strange going on here. Seems if u just turn OFF the autopilot it keeps the MCAS system from kicking in. But then what's the POINT of all this dangerous extraneous software? The co-pilot only had 200 hrs flying time-need to find out who was in control of jet
Trim....trim...trim...
Good decision taken ! Grounded Boeing Max7 worldwide will push the American CEO Denis Muilenburg to require the engineering design review processes and to eventually pay back damages caused by the technical failures. Shutdowns may not be responsible. Sorry !
Common sense prevailing at last
Why is our country stalling
Next is the 🇺🇸
What’s the U.S. FAA waiting for? See even Canada 🇨🇦 knows better!!
