On the opening of the world’s biggest aviation show, Ethiopian Airlines’ boss has rounded on American lawmakers who blame the March crash of a Boeing 737 Max at Addis Ababa on pilot error.

That crash and an earlier disaster involving a similar jetliner in Indonesia five months earlier has led to the world-wide grounding all 380 Boeing 737 Max.

At the Paris Air Show, Ethiopian Airlines  chief executive Tewolde Gebremariam says US congressmen blaming pilot error for the Boeing 737 Max crashes are seriously misinformed.

Boeing’s chief executive Dennis Muilenberg repeated the admission that the company had failed to communicate properly with regulators and customers about problems that Boeing would correct.

Gebremariam says the world-wide fleet of 394 Boeing 737 Max remains grounded. The facts speak for themselves.
