The air accident watchdog declared it a ‘serious incident’ --- Boeing 737 Max dives 2,000ft in 17 seconds on Ryanair flight to London. The Boeing 737 Max airliner was in the final stages of its descent into London Stansted Airport when it suddenly plunged Data showed the aircraft fell at a rate of more than 8,000ft per minute, even though it was already flying at a low altitude. They then crank the engines to full power to begin climbing upwards again before circling around the airport and carrying out another landing attempt. The Air Accidents Investigation Branch (AAIB) said in its log that the jet experienced a ‘high speed and high nose down pitch attitude’, which effectively means it suddenly began flying downwards on a steep trajectory.
