Re: Panic
As well as the two superficially similar incidents there was also a very similar near accident where another Lion Air crew just managed to keep the aircraft in the air. **IF** the Air Ethiopia loss does turn out to have the same root cause then that suggests that the instructions given to crews on how to deal with the situation that seems to have caused the Lion air incidents are inadequate. Grounding the aircraft until the cause is established doesn't seem over the top.
