7000 fpm is not all that unusual during a descent. What’s unusual here is the proximity to the ground. Nothing in this story indicates there is necessarily anything wrong with the aircraft, and I think more likely this is pilot error. I’m as much of a 737 MAX critic as anyone, but nothing indicates the aircraft is the cause as of now.
