Ethiopian Airlines Boeing 737 crashes

The plane, a Boeing 737-800MAX with flight number ET 302, lost contact at 08.44 am local time soon after taking off, at 08:38 am local time, from Bole International Airport in the Ethiopian capital, the airline said in a statement. The aircraft went down around Bishoftu, southeast of Addis Ababa. The airline believes there were 149 passengers and eight crew members on board.

— Office of the Prime Minister - Ethiopia March 10, 2019 Ethiopia Airlines has gained the reputation of being one of the best airlines in Africa. It has a good safety record and the newest fleet of planes on the African continent, according to its website. The Boeing 737-800MAX is the same type of plane as the Indonesian Lion Air jet that crashed soon after takeoff from Jakarta -- killing 189 people.

What can be done to prevent this kind of crash? Scientist can solve the problem I believe. They should design a kind of parachute that will help to control a plane from the force of gravity and the speed to prevent such crash. My thoughts. Not easy but effort will be better

Condolências

RIP

Learn to actually find a photo of the type of aircraft involved FIRST why don’t you ? You need people in staff that know airplanes come on now

RIP

heart wrenching 💔💔💔

All BOEING737MAX8 should be recalled and get their engineers to fix it's anti stall sensor. Two brand new flight crashed. Boeing seems to be shameless. unsafeboeing

Ethiopian Airlines Boeing 737 brand new hardly few months old crashed. 99% of plane accidents occur during take-off and landing because it is manual and requires great skill of the pilot to engineer the flight.

Okay, CNN, how is this Trump's fault?

See if anything happens tomorrow with Boeing stock.

Praying for all the families and lost souls in this horrible tragedy.

Sooo sad, may God comfort the families that lost their beloved ones

This is so sad. My sympathy to the friends and family of the passengers and crew.

For all of us out here that love airplanes and flying, could you try a little harder with your pics/aircraft type matching?

There are way too many planes & trains blowing up, derailing, crashing,and causing A LOT of chaos & grief! This crap needs to quit‼️ Obviously, the makers need to do a better job of building them, instead of just slapping it together in a big rush‼️😡📣📣

These airlines needs to stop playing with lives and start doing proper inspections and maintenance checks regularly

flying is the safest way to travel.

My condolence to all families and friends who lost ones.

So sad condolences to all involved 🙏🙏

My prayers are with the families!

How incredibly awful!!!

Thoughts and prayers.....

AP didn't see this.

Boeing must roll back this bloody 747 air lines out of operation !!

cnn this is Boeing 737 max 8 jet

I thought Tupolev 154 was the deadliest model of plane.

Whenever a plane crashes, someone should investigate if there was anyone on board whom the CIA wanted dead. Michael Hastings said this.

Someone forgot to wind up the rubber bands.

Sad news .. My condolences to all families that have lost their loves ones ! May all RIP 🙏🏽✍️

Boeing I am surprised airlines haven't installed at least one HD camera with audio in either the cockpit facing out like a dashcam or one in the back of airplane facing forward so all you see are back of passenger heads with info beamed real time to a 'cloud' and stored.

2 crash with tsame model airplane in just 5 months, they have to start to be more professional and respect for the passengers ... I hope they find survivors

any flies?

Sad! 737 MAX again!

My thoughts, prayers and condolences goes out to all of the family and friends of those on board not only today but in the weeks, months and years to come. 🙏🏻

💔💔

The photo above and the one you’re using on air, is of a Boeing 767, a twin-aisle, much larger aircraft, than a Boeing 737.

So sorry and sad about the news! That was my best ever African best flight with a good hospitality! May their souls Rest In Peace

Very sad. If US/UK warmongers instead of spending $trillions on war machines spend on civil aviation security and safety one can fly with assurance that will land safely

Here in the last week or two I think there's been to many planes that have gone down

Really feel for the families!

OMG! that's so horrible. Hope no purssagers are hurt

Photo you're showing is of a Boeing 767. Downed aircraft is a smaller, narrowbody, Boeing 737 MAX 8.

Same tipe of plane as the Lion air crash it seems. So sorry for those who lost their lifes.

The African proud air line god help them

Must be something terribly wrong with the new 737 MAX 8. 2 accidents of a similar jet in a space of 5 months

Very sad news. My prayers for the families.
