Here are the countries that have grounded or barred the Boeing 737 Max 8 - China - Ethiopia - Singapore - Indonesia - Morocco - Mongolia - Malaysia - Australia - Oman - Britain
By Gerry Shih Gerry Shih China Correspondent Email Bio Follow March 12 at 10:41 AM BEIJING — Britain banned the Boeing 737 Max from its airspace on Tuesday, becoming the first European nation to place restrictions on the aircraft after an Ethiopian Airlines crash killed all 157 people aboard.
By becoming the first country to ground the planes, China sent an unmistakable signal: the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration is no longer the only authority in civil aviation worldwide. Investigations of both the Ethiopia and Indonesia crashes are still ongoing and the FAA announced Monday it now had a team in Ethiopia at the site of the wreckage. The FAA said it will mandate a software fix in the coming weeks to the jet’s automation.
“These kinds of situations have already happened many times,” Li said without giving more details, according to state media. China will resume 737 Max flights after it’s been given sufficient safety guarantees from Boeing, he added, but there was the risk now that Chinese pilots “didn’t dare to fly, and weren’t able to fly” the plane.
Hansford, who has spoken to pilot unions about their concerns flying the Boeing plane, said Chinese authorities had ample justification to move first. The FAA has shown reluctance to take tough action against a major American manufacturer, he said. “I’ve noticed there is a great deal of error in the M.C.A.S. system, so it’s not a one-off incident,” said Liu, who spoke to The Washington Post on the condition that his employer not be identified. “Boeing has not done enough, it never thought about suspending the production or operation of its 737 Max 8 planes even after recurring tragedies.”
