AirAsia QZ 8501 News: 6 Bodies Found Inside Plane Fuselage

Current news about the AirAsia 8501 plane crash claimed that 6 more bodies have been found after Indonesian divers finally gained access to the aircraft's fuselage for the first time.

Indonesia's search and rescue team have been battling bad weather as they made attempts to gain access to the fuselage.

Indonesia’s National Search and Rescue Agency chief Suryadi Bambang Supriyadi said that divers searching for AirAsia debris were able to locate "more bodies near the fuselage."

"Today we have evacuated six bodies from inside the fuselage,” he said. “Some other bodies are still there but their position among other debris made it difficult for our divers.”

So far 65 bodies have been retrieved from the crash site. The search team has been struggling with poor visibility and strong currents in order to lift the fuselage and what appeared to be a cockpit from the sea floor.

Bad weather may have been a cause for the crash since the plane's captain made an odd request to climb to 38,000. ft.

The transport minister, Ignasius Jonan, told the Indonesian parliament earlier this week that radar data showed the plane was climbing at an abnormally high rate, then dropped rapidly and disappeared. "

"No distress signal was sent," he said in a report from The Guardian.

Officials of the National Transportation Safety Committee said they did not believe there was any foul play involved. Examination of the flight recorders said that there was no loud noises heard, and there was no threat of any terrorist activity.

Indonesian searchers are looking at the data from the flight recorder and cockpit voice recorder to search for more missing pieces in the AirAsia crash.
