157 people including nine Britons died in the crash.

On Wednesday, the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) banned the Boeing’s 737 Max plane from operating in the UK amid safety concerns.

A CAA spokesman said: “The UK Civil Aviation Authority has been closely monitoring the situation, however, as we do not currently have sufficient information from the flight data recorder, we have as a precautionary measure issued instructions to stop any commercial passenger flights from any operator arriving, departing or overflying UK airspace.”

A number of countries and airlines around the world have also grounded 737 Max 8 aircraft, which was the model involved when Ethiopian Airlines flight ET302 crashed shortly after taking off from Addis Ababa on Sunday morning.
