First fatal crash of 737 MAX-8 with LEAP-1B engines... a brand new one just delivered in August, too:

Even though it is too early to say what caused the crash, it's going to be an overhung issue when Mr. Culp meet the press on Tuesday.
Praying for the families of those on board.
We can hope it isn't our fault. But Aviation's luck is bound to run out sooner or later... who will carry Power then?
We can only hope, amiright?
Right now the leading speculation is between a faulty pitot tube. But fuel starvation or combustion failure still can't be ruled out until the pieces are recovered and analyzed.
You're right. Just because all indications are that the plane lost controls doesn't mean we should lose hope that it was GE's fault.
Fake news @1ntq. Engine problems have not yet been ruled out, except by you.
Sorry guy. Looks like the plane lost controls rather than an engine and you won't be able to b--ch about GE. I'm sorry for your family.
Please, lets not discuss money over lives here...
Airspeed system failure? Not seeing anything in the press to that effect, what leads you to that suggestion?
There is no regard for those on board here. SOS
That's a lie. The op is not genuinely concerned.
@VSJr4g0-bwp Uncalled for response. Don't let your bitterness project to someone making a genuine statement of concern.
"Praying for the families of those on board."
No your not. You're dancing on their graves of their family.
Good lord, is the stock really going to drop to zero? Unreal.
