After the recent crash of the Ethiopian 737MAX8 I started to receive a lot of
questions like "what's going wrong with the MAX", "what do you, Denis, think about
this accident, shall I change my tickets to Airbus", "how to live now", and many
others.
First, guys, I want to stress, that the investigation has just begun and at this
moment there is a lack of official information.
However, this accident looks very similar to the
first crash of the same model which happened half a year ago in Indonesia with
a Lion Air 737MAX8. Both airplanes crashed just in a few minutes after airborne
and before impact they were integral and the vertical speed and the air speed
were so high, that almost no big parts of the airplanes remained, just small
fractures.
