Indonesia has identified a victim from the Sriwijaya Air crash as emergency crews prepare to send in a remotely operated underwater vehicle to search for the jet’s cockpit recorders in the sea.
The Boeing 737-500 plane with 62 people on board plunged into the Java Sea two days ago, minutes after taking off from Jakarta’s main airport.
