  • Ethiopian Airlines flight 302 crashed on Sunday, killing all 157 passengers on board.
  • The crash had eerie similarities to the Lion Air crash in October, which was also a Boeing 737 Max 8.
  • Some countries and airlines have grounded their entire Boeing 737 Max 8 fleets

The crash of Ethiopian Airlines flight 302 on Sunday, which killed all 157 passengers on board, was the second crash of a Boeing 737 Max in the last six months.

That's forced some countries and airlines to halt their fleets while Boeing investigates if there's any link between Ethiopia's disaster and the crash of Lion Air flight 610, which plunged into the Java Sea 12 minutes after takeoff in October.

A Boeing representative declined to comment on China's decision but told Business Insider in an email that a Boeing technical team would be traveling to the crash site in Ethiopia to provide technical assistance with the investigation.

Here's who's taken action so far (this list will be updated):
