It’s a different model it’s 737-800. Different plane model while still within the 737 family.

When I say "another" I was referring to that previous incident where a passenger plane was shot down in Ukraine and not the Max plane problem. Any passenger plane crashing seems like a significant story. I hope we aren't numb to that already.

What makes you think it's being treated as insignificant? It's all over the news.

Now that I think about it I'm not sure where I got that impression. You are probably correct.

Both the plane that crashed, and the model referenced in this article, are the same family of 737.
