The 777 has a great long-term record. The 737 MAX started falling out of the sky right away.

I generally hate being pedantic, but to really be accurate they started flying themselves into the ground rather than falling out of the sky.

I have thought a lot about this for personal reasons, and I increasingly think the biggest failing is not grounding the fleet after the Lion Air crash. The Ethiopia Air should never have happened in any company that prioritized safety and risk appropriately.
