Ερωτήματα για την ασφάλεια των Boeing 737 Max 8 εγείρει το δεύτερο αεροπορικό δυστύχημα, που συμβαίνει με το εν λόγω αεροσκάφος, μέσα σε διάστημα τεσσάρων μηνών.
Η νέα τραγωδία που σημειώθηκε στην Αιθιοπία και κόστισε τη ζωή σε 157 ανθρώπους, ακολούθησε εκείνης της ινδονησιακής εταιρείας Lion Air, στα τέλη Οκτωβρίου. Τότε αεροσκάφος και πάλι τύπου MAX 8, κατέπεσε στη θάλασσα ανοικτά της Ιάβας, παρασύροντας στο θάνατο 189 ανθρώπους.
Η έρευνα και στις δύο περιπτώσεις συνεχίζεται, αλλά η τελευταία συντριβή εγείρει ακόμη περισσότερα ερωτήματα σχετικά με την ασφάλεια του 737 Max, το οποίο η Boeing παρουσίασε το 2017 ως το πιο εξελιγμένο μοντέλο του δημοφιλούς 737.
Αιθιοπία, Κίνα και Κένυα είναι οι πρώτες χώρες που αποφάσισαν την προσωρινή καθήλωση των MAX, μέχρι να αποσαφηνιστεί κατά πόσο η συγκεκριμένη σειρά αεροσκαφών είναι προβληματική.
Οι Αρχές της Ινδονησίας δήλωσαν πως δεν σχεδιάζουν, προς το παρόν, να καθηλώσουν τα αεροσκάφη.
Η εταιρεία κατασκευής αεροσκαφών Boeing ανακοίνωσε πως οι έρευνες βρίσκονται ακόμη σε πρώιμο στάδιο.«Η ασφάλεια αποτελεί την υπ’αριθμό ένα προτεραιότητά μας και λαμβάνουμε κάθε μέριμνα για να κατανοήσουμε όλες τις πτυχές του δυστυχήματος».
