> Yonas Yeshanew, a former top engineer for Ethiopian Airlines, also said that going into the records, which should have been sealed, was part of a pattern of corrupt habits that included signing off on poor or non-existent repairs, and even physical violence against those who would not cooperate.
> Following the March 10, 2019, crash of Ethiopian Airlines Flight 302 outside Addis Ababa that killed all 157 passengers and crew, Yeshanew said it was clear that nothing had changed within the culture of the airline.
> Besides the poor practices in regards to safety, he said he knows of at least two mechanics in the past three years who were beaten after running into trouble with the airline, and he feared the same fate awaited him.
