The effort to search for and recover Lion Air PK-LQP's CVR is well underway...


Search for cockpit voice recorder of crashed Lion Air resumes in Indonesia
...A ship equipped with sophisticated technology resumed search for the cockpit voice recorder and the remains of victims of a fatal flight of Lion air JT 610, investigator said here on Thursday...

...A MPV Everest ship operated by a Dutch firm, which is hired by Lion Air, kicked off the search on Thursday morning, said Haryo Satmiko, deputy chairman of the committee.

"The MPV Everest arrived at the crash site on Wednesday night and resumed search this morning," he said.

The mission is undertaken around the clock and will last for ten days. If the mission fails in finding the cockpit voice recorder, a further evaluation will be carried out, Satmiko added.

The fuselage of the aircraft and the remains of 64 victims who have not been recovered would also be the targets of the mission, he said...

===========================================

It's a bit strange - a rather quiet happening- that even local news outlets don't seem to pay any attention to this important undertaking.
