What you need to know:
The government is contemplating whether to issue a statement on the action to take over Boeing’s 737 MAX 8 as the number of countries and airlines banning the medium-haul workhorse jet from their airspace increases.
The ban is in response to the Ethiopian Airlines crash that killed all 157 people on board.
