Indonesian Divers Retrieve Flight Recorder From Jet Crash Bloomberg 1/12/2021 Rieka Rahadiana, Eko Listiyorini and Alan Levin
(Bloomberg) Indonesian Navy divers retrieved one of the black boxes of the Sriwijaya Air Boeing Co. jet that plunged into the Java Sea shortly after takeoff on Saturday, a key step in discovering what caused the aircraft carrying 62 people to crash.
Black boxes are crucial to understanding what happened as they capture sound in the cockpit and monitor flight data. The aircraft in this instance was a nearly 27-year-old 737-500, not the much newer Boeing 737 Max just emerging from a 20-month grounding. The Max was grounded globally after two crashes, including a Lion Air flight in October 2018 that also plummeted into Indonesia’s Java Sea.
Search teams at the site of the Sriwijaya Air crash in Indonesia have sent body bags and items of clothing to police for identification as they expand the search for the aircraft’s black boxes.

The Boeing Co. 737-500 passenger jet carrying 62 people plunged more than 10,000 feet shortly after takeoff at 2:36 p.m. local time Saturday. Investigators said it came down quickly and broke apart after hitting the Java Sea, but haven’t determined a cause for the 26-year-old plane’s crash.
