Unlawful killing verdict in Boeing 737 Max plane crash

Three British people who died in a plane crash were unlawfully killed, a coroner has ruled.

The court heard flight ET302 from Addis Ababa to Kenya crashed shortly after take-off because of a design flaw. Despite the pilots' efforts to save wrest control of the plane it crashed in remote farmland outside the Ethiopian capital. Two employees of the manufacturer, she said, had deliberately deceived regulators and operators of the 737 Max over the operation of a safety critical system.The inquest heard Mr Pegram's parents describe the humanitarian worker as a kind, compassionate man with an infectious sense of humour.
