Crashed Indonesian plane found ‘destroyed’, 54 dead

Jayapura (Indonesia), August 18: A plane that crashed in eastern Indonesia was Tuesday found “completely destroyed” with the bodies of all 54 people who had been aboard amid the wreckage in a fire-blackened clearing at a remote site in dense jungle. Rescuers finally reached the debris of the Trigana Air plane, which went down Sunday during a short flight in bad weather, after being forced to abandon search efforts a day earlier due to the mountainous terrain and bad weather.

“The plane has crashed, it is completely destroyed,” search and rescue chief Bambang Soelistyo said of the ATR 42-300 after rescue teams reached the site in Papua province at 9:30 am (0030 GMT). “Everything was in pieces and part of the plane is burnt. We could see burn marks on some pieces,” he said.

Photos of the site showed a fire-blackened clearing in thick jungle strewn with debris. The twin-turboprop plane was carrying 54 people — 49 passengers and five crew – and officials said all the bodies had been found among the wreckage. Some bodies were not intact, and others were badly burnt. The plane’s “black boxes”, consisting of a flight data recorder and cockpit voice recorder, were also found, the transport ministry said. The devices should provide clues about what caused the crash.

The disaster is just the latest air accident in Indonesia, which has a poor aviation safety record and has suffered major disasters in recent months, including the crash of an AirAsia plane in December with the loss of 162 lives. AFP
