    Donald Trump has suggested that modern planes are too complex in the wake of two deadly crashes in the past five months.
    The US president said that the additional "complexity creates danger" and hinders pilots from making "split second decisions" to ensure their passengers' safety.
    "Airplanes are becoming far too complex to fly. Pilots are no longer needed, but rather computer scientists from MIT. I see it all the time in many products. Always seeking to go one unnecessary step further, when often old and simpler is far better," Mr Trump wrote on Twitter.
    He added: "Split second decisions are... needed, and the complexity creates danger. All of this for great cost yet very little gain. I don’t know about you, but I don’t want Albert Einstein to be my pilot. I want great flying professionals that are allowed to easily and quickly take control of a plane!"
    His remarks come after several countries, including the UK, China and Australia, grounded the Boeing 737 Max 8 aircraft.
    The aircraft crashed in Indonesia last year and in Ethiopia on Sunday, killing all 157 people on board.
