Boeing 737 MAX-8: Which airlines are still operating the controversial plane after Ethiopian crash?

At least six countries have ordered the grounding of all Boeing 737 MAX 8 aircraft, citing the Ethiopian Airlines crash and another deadly accident of that same model in Indonesia, while many continue to fly.

As the tributes flow for the 157 victims of the Ethiopian Airlines crash, a number of airlines have grounded their Boeing 737 MAX-8 jets after similarities emerged between two recent aviation disasters.

On Sunday, the Boeing 737 MAX 8 aircraft carrying 157 passengers and crew went down six minutes after its early morning take-off from Addis Ababa, killing all on board.
