Incident relationship. Two incidents for the same aircraft type in 5 months is a unicorn in the wild situation for aviation. Except like an evil unicorn. That's why it warrants mention.
- Someone 8y agoBut, having established that both were 737 MAX (”However, Sunday’s crash of an Ethiopian Airlines 737 MAX is the second fatal incident involving the aircraft type in just five months”) the observation that both were 737 MAX 8 is not surprising at all, given that >90% of 737 MAX’s in service are of that type.
- peferron 8y agoThey should also not have mentioned that both planes were Boeings, since 100% of 737 MAX are Boeings.
