The Boeing 737 MAX that crashed on its way to Nairobi last month repeatedly nose-dived before plunging to the earth, Ethiopian Airlines said in a statement.
A preliminary report on the crash found that the plane’s crew “had performed all the procedures, repeatedly, provided by the manufacturer [Boeing], but was not able to control the aircraft.”
Noting that the plane experienced multiple nose-dives, the report recommends that the aircraft’s flight control system be reviewed by Boeing. Investigators also called on aviation authorities to “verify that the review of the aircraft flight control system related to flight controllability has been adequately addressed by the manufacturer before release of the aircraft” for commercial use.
