The Civil Aviation Administration of Vietnam has just decided to ban Boeing 737 Max 8 aircraft from entering Vietnam airspace from 10 am on March 13, 2019, following the prohibition of all countries around the world forbid this kind of aircrafts to takes off.


This is the type of aircraft that private airline Vietjet in Vietnam ordered 100 units, which had previously been reported that this very airline had ordered 100 already.
