The headline is really confusing; I thought I was perhaps reading it wrong, but it's sort of impossible to read correctly until you realize they are talking about a separate incident than the well-known crash.

It would have been clearer if they had written something simpler, like "Lion Air 737 Nearly Crashed One Day Before Deadly Accident"



We added "on the" to try to make that clearer above.


Agreed. I ended up reading a second article on the topic to ensure I was understanding it correctly (the prior day's flight involving the same identical aircraft, not a different one of the same model).


I still can't tell if it says whether or was actually the same individual aircraft.


Same aircraft


I read it 5 times and I am glad I wasn't the one. I thought it was 737 days before.
