- Alupis 5y agoNothing. This is a 22 year old aircraft that's changed hands a lot[1] and is flown hard. It's a different aircraft type too... Every time an aircraft, let alone a Boeing, has a failure, everyone starts to point out every other situation too. These two situations have literally nothing to do with each other.

- sofixa 5y agoThere was also the Chinese 737 crash. It might be just a coincidence that it's all Boeing's, it might be poor maintenance due to the pandemic, who knows.
- kayodelycaon 5y agoThe only thing in common is Boeing made the plane. Literally every other detail is different. One was clearly a mechanical failure in an old, heavily used aircraft and the other is likely a some kind of unexpected automation behavior. Possibilities for Air France include but not limited to: misconfiguration, failure of sensors, programming fault, electronics failure, or pilot not expecting the automation to be in the mode it's in—which could be a training issue, pilot error, or failure of the manufacturer to document the behavior.
