Pangkalan Bun, Indonesia
SEARCH teams trying to find the black box flight recorders from a crashed AirAsia jet and recover bodies of victims scrambled on Tuesday to take advantage of a respite in the bad weather that has frustrated the operation for the last nine days.
Indonesian officials believe that they may have located the tail and parts of the fuselage of the Airbus A320-200 at the bottom of the Java Sea, but strong currents, high winds and big waves have hindered attempts to send divers to investigate.
