Ethiopia and Indonesia crash parallels heap pressure on Boeing via SABCNewsOnline

Analysis of the cockpit recorder showed its “angle of attack” data was “very, very similar” to that of the Lion Air jet that went down off Jakarta in October, killing 189 people, a person familiar with the investigation said.

“Everything will be investigated,” Ethiopian Transport Ministry spokesman Musie Yehyies told Reuters. The fix was developed in the aftermath of the Indonesia crash when regulators suggested false sensor data could cause a system known as MCAS to overreact and make the jet hard to control. After a 10 percent drop last week that wiped nearly $25 billion off its market share, Boeing stock slid about 1.8 percent on Monday.
