Airlines in Ethiopia, China and Indonesia grounded Boeing 737 Max 8 aircraft on Monday after one of the planes crashed in Ethiopia, killing 157 people. Ethiopia Airlines said Monday the flight recorders from the plane had been found. The Boeing 737 Max 8 crashed six minutes after takeoff on Sunday from Ethiopia’s capital Addis Ababa. The plane was headed to Nairobi, Kenya when it crashed into a field in clear weather. Investigators are hoping the recorders, also called black boxes, will provide information about what might have caused the crash. Red Cross workers picked through the wreckage, spread over a wide area, in search of human remains. Ethiopian authorities are leading the investigation, with help from teams from the United States, Kenya and other nations. The Sunday crash was very similar to one last year involving a Boeing 737 Max 8 belonging to Indonesia’s Lion Air.
