PANGKALAN BUN (REUTERS) - Indonesia search and rescue teams hunting for the wreck of the missing Indonesia AirAsia passenger jet have detected pings in their efforts to find the black box recorders, Santoso Sayogo, an investigator at the National Transportation Safety Committee, told Reuters on Friday.
He said it appeared that the black box was no longer in the tail.
“We received an update from the field that the pinger locator already detected pings,” he told Reuters. “We have our fingers crossed it is the black box. Divers need to confirm."
"Unfortunately it seems it’s off from the tail. But the divers need to confirm the position,” he said.
