Indonesia plane crash
kills all 189 on board
Associated Press
JAKARTA, Indonesia —
Rescuers in inflatable boats
retrieved human remains,
pieces of aircraft and personal
belongings from the Java Sea
today after a new-genera-
tion Boeing jet operated by
an Indonesian budget airline
crashed minutes after take-
off, killing all 189 people on
board.
Distraught family mem-
bers struggled to comprehend
the sudden loss of loved ones
in the crash of the 2-month-
old Lion Air plane with expe-
rienced pilots in fine weather.
They gathered at crisis cen-
ters set up by the authorities at
airports, hoping desperately
for a miracle. But a top search
official, citing the condition of
the remains recovered, said no
survivors are expected.
The disaster is a setback
for Indonesia’s airline indus-
try, which just emerged from
decadelong bans by the Euro-
pean Union and the U.S. over
safety concerns.
President Joko Widodo
ordered an investigation and
urged Indonesians to “keep on
praying.”
The crash of the Boeing
737 Max 8 is the latest in a
series of tragedies that have
struck Indonesia this year,
including earthquakes and
a tsunami that killed several
thousand people.
An air transport offi-
cial, Novie Riyanto, said the
flight was cleared to return to
Jakarta after the pilot made a
“return to base” request two to
three minutes after taking off.
It plunged into the sea about
10 minutes later. Weather
conditions were normal but
the plane, which Lion Air
received in August, had expe-
rienced an unspecified techni-
cal issue on its previous flight.
Relatives and friends wept,
prayed and hugged each other
as they waited at Jakarta’s air-
port and at Pangkal Pinang’s
airport on Bangka island off
Sumatra where the flight was
headed. Some including Indo-
nesian Finance Minister Sri
Mulyani headed to the search
and rescue agency’s headquar-
ters in Jakarta for information.
About 20 ministry staff were
on the flight.
