i will not get in one of these boeings as a passenger until i read on this site that there is complete understanding on the cause(s) and fixes for these crashes. This was not a crash by some Lion airline style crap airline, bad maintenance and bad piloting. Ethiopian airlines is in my mind a trustworthy operation. Boeing best get busy discerning what the heck is going on here.
Agreed 100%
I’m not making any assumptions (I’ll leave that to the professionals), but it appears to be another 737 MAX
737 MAX 8 (ET-AVJ), delivered November 2018.

I, too, will not make any "assumptions", but I can state that Ethiopian have excellent safety and maintenance, and is a huge hub for Boeing Maintenance.
The speed was high. Almost 440 knots. The allitude was low maybe max of 500 feet off the ground and the vertical altitude was very irratic. And the plane was only 4 months old. Hum makes you think. But the cause will soon come out.
The cause needs to come out sooner, rather than later. If only to quell speculation.
Yes it will. I was just giving information I got from bbc who got from some flight tracking system.
Sincères condoléances aux familles des victimes
