The Lion Air Flight 610 Crash: 5 Minutes

The tragic Lion Air Flight 610 crash, which occurred on October 29, 2018, involving a Boeing 737 MAX aircraft, was the result of a sequence of events exacerbated by faulty Angle of Attack (AOA) sensors, inadequate pilot training on the Maneuvering Characteristics Augmentation System (MCAS), and design flaws in the aircraft's flight control systems. The MCAS system, designed to prevent stalls, repeatedly pushed the aircraft's nose down due to erroneous sensor data, leading to the loss of control by the pilots and the subsequent crash into the Java Sea, claiming the lives of all 189 people on board. This incident, along with a subsequent crash involving Ethiopian Airlines Flight 302, prompted the worldwide grounding of the Boeing 737 MAX fleet and initiated a thorough investigation into Boeing's safety protocols and regulatory oversight. The aftermath of these tragedies saw significant reforms in aviation safety regulations, enhanced pilot training, and modifications to the MCAS system to prevent similar incidents in the future.
