RE:RE:RE:Looking into the Future simplelife... perhaps you should check out the safety record of Ethiopian airlines before you make any statements regarding their pilot training and maintenance record..
These 2 accidents have nothing to do with aircraft maintenance.. Boeing's anti stall system on the 737 max is the problem and until it's fixed the safety issue will continue..
"The US Federal Aviation Administration gives Ethiopia a Category 1 safety rating, the organization’s highest, which means it can operate flights to the US, which it does. The nation also passes muster with the EU’s European Aviation Safety Agency regulations."
"Ethiopian Airlines, the national flag carrier, also has a trustworthy safety report card, and a large fleet — the biggest in Africa — of modern Boeing and Airbus airplanes. It flies among others the Boeing 787 Dreamliner, for which it was one of the earliest customers, and the Airbus A350. It’s also a leading member of Star Alliance, the largest airline alliance in the world, along with names such as Lufthansa, United and Singapore Airlines. As an alliance member, it must maintain stringent safety protocols."
"The airline has a safety rating of six stars out of a possible seven on respected aviation site AirlineRating.com. "
