> The 737 MAX's Maneuvering Characteristics Augmentation System (MCAS) has come under scrutiny for faulty angle-of-attack readings in the Lion Air accident[126] and the apparent similarity of the Ethiopian Airlines crash.[127]
> On March 11, 2019, in response to the Lion Air and Ethiopian Airlines crashes, the Civil Aviation Administration of China (CAAC) ordered the suspension of operations of the 96 Boeing 737 MAX 8s operated by Chinese-based airlines, citing the similarity between the two accidents. A number of airlines and regulatory authorities around the world followed suit, though some airlines still continued to operate the type as of this date.[128] On the same day, in response to the Lion Air and Ethiopian Airlines crashes, Indonesia ordered the temporary suspension of operations of eleven Boeing 737 MAX 8s operated by Garuda Indonesia and Lion Air.[129][130] Inspection is set to begin on 12 March, 2019.[131]
