No passengers on the plane. Still, not a good sign.

I think President Trump did Boeing a tremendous favor by grounding those planes - not to mention most importantly protecting the public.

Why these problems seemingly “out of the blue”?
They do a botched fleetwide software update or something?

Interesting to label the pilot and co-pilot as “passengers”. The computer in charge and rebelling?

The media is now connecting anything that happens on a Max to the crashes, as usual.
The fact that they are not connected at all, doesn’t matter, of course.

Engine overheat warning caused the return, then it ingested a bunch of birds while landing.

"A Southwest plane that was on its way to be grounded...""A Southwest Boeing 737 Max 8 took off from Orlando International Airport at 2:50 p.m. on Tuesday. Airport officials said that it experienced a malfunction and had to return to Orlando for an emergency landing."
What part of "grounded" did they not understand?

Not related to the recent issue.

No passengers on the plane. Still, not a good sign. Boeing doesn't make the engines, nor do they maintain the engines. Can't hang this one on them.

Instead of version 12.1 they will need to update to version 12.2

How are any of these planes flying? I thought President Trump grounded them all.

This engine event is the type of thing that happens somewhere every day, generally without serious incident, and without being reported in the media. As others have pointed out, the media is connecting this to the apparent MCAS-related event(s), but it is likely completely unrelated to MCAS and/or to the two accidents.
It’s the same any time there is a serious incident or accident; the media goes into overdrive reporting every little daily event as if they are all related. This then leads to a period of the public believing that the whole aviation system is coming apart at the seams. Nothing could be farther from the truth.

Emergency landings happen every day. The 737 Max is safe and a great airplane. The pilots need to know how to fly it. 1,000 hours minimum, that is minimum. 1,000 hours. 2,000 hour civilian is what I would require.

Totally unrelated to the MCAS.
Media malpractice.
