1 / 3Of the 157 people who died in last week's Ethiopian Airlines crash, 17 of them were EthiopiansOf the 157 people who died in last week's Ethiopian Airlines crash, 17 of them were Ethiopians Addis Ababa - Black box data recovered from an Ethiopian Airlines plane that crashed last week shows"clear similarities" with a recent crash in Indonesia of the same type of aircraft, Ethiopia's transport minister said on Sunday.
The disaster caused the worldwide grounding of the Boeing 737 MAX 8 aircraft involved after aviation regulators noticed similarities with the October crash of an Indonesian Lion Air 737 MAX 8 that killed all 189 passengers and crew. The pilots of Lion Air Flight 610 struggled to control the aircraft as the automated MCAS system repeatedly pushed the plane's nose down following takeoff, according to the flight data recorder.
Wearing a t-shirt bearing a photo of Amma Tesfamariam in her flight attendant uniform, Meselech Petros said her 28-year-old sister was not supposed to work last Sunday, but came in to cover for a friend."We are broken and hurting very much. It's very difficult," added Amma's brother Selamsew Mathias, 26.
