‘US Still Flying The Boeing 737 Max’ – Reports

Recently, the Nigerian government had banned the Boeing 737 Max aircraft from flying in the country.

The decision was reached days after a Boeing 737 Max-8 plane operated by Ethiopian Airlines, crashed in Addis Ababa, on its way to Nairobi, the Kenyan capital, killing all 157 people on board on Sunday.

However, the United States is the only nation still flying the Boeing 737 Max after an Ethiopian Airlines Max 8 crashes.

It was gathered that American Airlines, Southwest Airlines, and United Airlines haven’t grounded planes despite 40 countries opting not the fly the aircraft pending an investigation.

Revealed that on Wednesday morning, 33 of the model were spotted on Flightradar24, most over the US. 

Meanwhile Canada’s transport minister, Marc Garneau, said the country is closing air space to the Boeing 737 Max 8 jet Wednesday morning due to information they’d received in the form of satellite data, showing a possible but unproven similarity to a previous Max 8 crash.
