"A KNKT source, speaking on condition of anonymity, told Reuters the team will have seven days using the ship KRI Spica to find the CVR..."
The National Transportation Safety Committee (NTSC) collaborates with the Navy's Hydrographic and Oceanographic Center (Pushidrosal) to return to search for
cockpit voice recorders Lion Air JT-610 PK-LQP (CVR) which crashed in Tanjung Karawang waters some time ago.
Pushidrosal deployed KRI Spica-934 which departed from the Jakarta International Container Terminal (JICT) Pier 2, Tanjung Priok Port, Tuesday (1/8).
The departure of the Hydro-Oceanographic survey vessel under the guidance of the Pushidrosal was released by the Head of Regional Police Laksda TNI Harjo Susmoro and the Chair of the NTSC Soerjanto Tjahjono and the main officials of the two institutions.
Kapushidrosal in his written statement, said, the departure of KRI Spica-934 which has underwater equipment with advanced technology is to continue to look for the existence of CVR which until now has not been found with a complete tool such as Multibeam Echosounder (MBES), Sub Bottom Profiling (SBP) , Magnetometer, Side Scan Sonar, ADCP, and HIPAP equipment that can detect signals from the black box of Lion JT-610.
"In addition to the equipment, KRI Spica-934 also brought 55 crew members, 9 NTSC personnel, 18 Navy divers, and 6 Scientists," he said.
Meanwhile, the Chair of the NTSC Soerjanto Tjahjono said that the NTSC requested Pushidrosal's assistance with the latest equipment to look for the CVR's existence.
With all the power available, KRI Spica, which is commanded by Marine Lt. Col. (P) Hengky Iriawan, has time to look for the CVR Lion Air flight number JT-610 for 15 days, given the signal that CVR emits for 90 days.
At present the remaining remaining time is around 15 days left, since the Lion Air plane crashed in Karawang waters on October 29, 2018.
"We will focus on searching 5 x 5 meters wide, around the point where CVR is estimated. With all our efforts and prayers, we hope that the CVR can be found following the discovery of a
flight data recorder (FDR) some time ago to complete the investigation into the cause. "The fall of Lion Air is certain," said Kapushidrosal. (OL-1)
