VietJet Weighs Its $25 Billion Boeing Jet Order: 737 Max Update
By Nguyen Dieu Tu Uyen and Nizar Manek

The global standoff over the airworthiness of Boeing Co.’s 737 Max jet intensified as U.S. regulators reiterated their support for the aircraft, even after the European Union and other authorities issued blanket bans.

Investigators are still trying to understand why an Ethiopian Airlines 737 Max 8 crashed near Addis Ababa on March 10, killing 157 people, less than five months after an identical Lion Air plane plunged into waters off Indonesia.
Key Developments:

    VietJet will decide on future plans for 200 737 Max jets on order after probe

    Ethiopia will send flight recorders to an unknown destination

$25 billion for 200 of these. The article goes on that Norweigan air is going to seek compensation. What a nightmare!

I wouldn't go on one until this is matter is researched further.
