The same is true for any party that has hide in the game. That would be Boeing and the FAA, both face FBI criminal investigation so far.
I think Ethopian airlines did wan’t to make sure that nobody tampers with the evidence, so they took the FDR and CVR for read out to the BEA. You can be sure that Boeing, FAA and NTSB was notified early on the data since they have persons at the BEA for this investigation. So far we have heard nothing to the contrary that lots of similarities exist between the Lion air and Ethopian air accident. If it was a completely different cause Boeing would have spread long rumours, since they have the most hide in the game and loose money by the millions a day. Both were almost brand new airplanes so maintainance issues are not that likely.
