Two big parts of crashed AirAsia plane found at sea bed

Rescuers have discovered two big objects suspected of being parts of the crashed AirAsia plane at sea bed, Head of Indonesian National Search and Rescue Office F. Henry Bambang Sulistyo said on Saturday.

The ill-fated Singapore-bound AirAsia QZ8501 flight that departed from Indonesia's Surabaya carried 155 passengers and seven crews.

Rescuers have discovered 30 bodies from Indonesian waters where AirAsia plane crashed on Sunday, Sulistyo said.

"So far, there are 30 bodies found that I have confirmed," he told a press conference.

He said that 10 out of the 30 bodies are being moved from the airport at Pangkalan Bun of Central Kalimantan to Surabaya, the capital of East Java province.

While four bodies were still at the airport in Pangkalan Bun, eight others are at two ships and the rest are already in Surabaya city, said Sulistyo.

The eight bodies in the two ships included seven at an Indonesian rescue ship KRI Bung Tomo and one at Malaysian rescue ship KD Pahang, he said.

Nine planes, many with metal detecting equipment, were also scouring a 13,500-square-km area off Pangkalan Bun. "We will focus on underwater detection," said Sulistyo, adding that ships from Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, the United States had been on the scene since early Friday to try to locate wreckage and flight data and cockpit voice recorders.
