Crash probe continues

埃航黑匣子数据已读取

Preliminarydatarecovered fromthe black boxes of last week's Ethiopian Airlines crash has revealed "similarities" to October's fatal Lion Air crash, Ethiopian Transport Minister Dagmawit Moges said Sunday.

埃塞俄比亚交通部长莫格斯17日表示，从上周埃塞俄比亚航空公司坠毁客机的黑匣子中恢复的初步数据显示，此次飞机失事与去年10月发生的狮航严重坠机事故存在相似性。

Moges did not provide additional details about the purported"similarities" between the two crashes but said they would be "subject to further investigation". Ethiopian Airlines Flight 302 crashed March 10, six minutes after takeoff, killing all 157 people on board.

莫格斯没有提供这两起坠机事件相似性的更多细节，仅表示调查人员将对数据作进一步分析。本月10日，埃航302航班在起飞6分钟后坠毁，机上157人全部遇难。

It was the second disaster involving a Boeing 737 Max 8 aircraft in less than six months. In October, all 189 people on board Lion Air Flight 610 were killed when the flight went down over the Java Sea in Indonesia 13 minutes after takeoff. Similarities between the two incidents led aviation authorities around the world to ban the use of 737 Max 8s.

这是不到6个月时间里涉及波音737 MAX 8飞机的第二起空难。去年10月，印度尼西亚狮航610航班在起飞13分钟后在爪哇海上空坠毁，导致机上189人全部遇难。基于这两起事件的相似性，目前世界各地的航空公司已经禁飞波音737 MAX 8型号飞机。
