Remains of AirAsia jet carrying 162 People Is Seen in Ocean by Australian search plane

 

An object is said to have been  spotted hundreds of miles away from where the AirAsia was last seen according to Australian search plane Monday after search is resumed.

 

'However, we cannot be sure whether it is part of the missing AirAsia plane,' Rear Marshall Putranto said.

'We are now moving in that direction, which is in cloudy conditions.' 

Earlier, Indonesia search and rescue chief Henry Bambang Soelistyo said it seemed certain that the plane had crashed.

'Based on the coordinates that we know, the evaluation would be that any estimated crash position is in the sea, and that the hypothesis is the plane is at the bottom of the sea,' he said.

 

AirAsia flight went missing at 6.17am local time on Sunday while travelling from Indonesia to Singapore with 162 people on board, speculation.
 

Meanwhile distraught family members of passengers from the missing AirAsia flight try desperately to comfort each other at the crisis centre of Juanda International Airport in Surabaya, Indonesia
