Indonesian various found the hand wreckage of the Air Lion that crashed into the Java Sea, a breakthrough in a week-long search for victims and the black box that holds the key to unraveling the reason for the accident.

Various who have been scouring a 270 square-mile (700 sq-km) area since the jet crashed on Oct. 29 spotted the Boeing 737 Max 8 Jet's fuselage on Saturday (Nov 3).

This was told by Mr. Syaugi, the chief of the National Search and Rescue Agency, to reporters in Jakarta on Saturday.

The search crew is focused on retrieving the wreckage now, he said.

"We have made major breakthroughs as we have two turbines, one wheel," Syaugi said.

"There are reports of team members seeing the body of the plane."

Indonesian search crews have recovered a flight recorder, both the engines, a part of the landing gear, aircrew and JT610 carrying 189 people plunged into the sea.

Ping locators also picked a signal from possibly the cockpit voice recorder, Syaugi said.

A diver, who was volunteering in the search operations, died on Friday, he said. – Bloomberg
