Indonesia: debris found after Sriwijaya Air flight goes missing

Contact was lost with the Boeing 737-500 minutes after take-off from Jakarta

The National

  • Arabic

A Sriwijaya Air plane is suspected of having crashed minutes after take-off from the Indonesian capital, Jakarta, on Saturday, the authorities said.

Tracking showed the path of Flight SJ182 ending off the coast slightly north of Jakarta after the plane abruptly lost altitude.

Rescuers are looking for the plane, which lost contact after taking off with more than 60 people on board, an official of the Basarnas search and rescue agency said.

It has not yet been confirmed that debris found in the sea came from the Sriwijaya flight.

The Indonesian navy said it had determined the co-ordinates of the downed jet.

A statement released by the budget airline said 56 passengers and six crew members were onboard the Boeing 737-500, which was on a 90-minute flight from Jakarta to Pontianak, the capital of West Kalimantan province on Borneo island.

The authorities started search and rescue operations for the plane after contact was lost at 2.40pm local time, transport ministry spokesman Adita Irawati said.

According to flight-tracking website FlightRadar24, the aircraft appeared to have plunged 3,000 metres in less than a minute, about four minutes after take-off.

Sriwijaya Air has about 19 Boeing jets, which fly to destinations in Indonesia and South-East Asia.

In October 2018, 189 people were killed when a Lion Air Boeing 737 MAX jet slammed into the Java Sea about 12 minutes after take-off from Jakarta on a routine one-hour flight.

Boeing was fined $2.5 billion after that crash and a subsequent fatal flight in Ethiopia over claims it defrauded regulators overseeing the 737 MAX model, which was grounded worldwide following the two deadly crashes.

But Indonesia’s aviation sector has long suffered from a reputation for poor safety, and its airlines were once banned from entering US and European airspace.

In 2014, an AirAsia plane crashed with the loss of 162 lives.

Domestic investigators’ final report showed a chronically faulty component in a rudder control system, poor maintenance and the pilots’ inadequate response were major factors in what was supposed to be a routine flight from the Indonesian city of Surabaya to Singapore.

How to wear a kandura

Dos

  • Wear the right fabric for the right season and occasion 
  • Always ask for the dress code if you don’t know
  • Wear a white kandura, white ghutra / shemagh (headwear) and black shoes for work 
  • Wear 100 per cent cotton under the kandura as most fabrics are polyester

Don’ts 

  • Wear hamdania for work, always wear a ghutra and agal 
  • Buy a kandura only based on how it feels; ask questions about the fabric and understand what you are buying
Key figures in the life of the fort

Sheikh Dhiyab bin Isa (ruled 1761-1793) Built Qasr Al Hosn as a watchtower to guard over the only freshwater well on Abu Dhabi island.

Sheikh Shakhbut bin Dhiyab (ruled 1793-1816) Expanded the tower into a small fort and transferred his ruling place of residence from Liwa Oasis to the fort on the island.

Sheikh Tahnoon bin Shakhbut (ruled 1818-1833) Expanded Qasr Al Hosn further as Abu Dhabi grew from a small village of palm huts to a town of more than 5,000 inhabitants.

Sheikh Khalifa bin Shakhbut (ruled 1833-1845) Repaired and fortified the fort.

Sheikh Saeed bin Tahnoon (ruled 1845-1855) Turned Qasr Al Hosn into a strong two-storied structure.

Sheikh Zayed bin Khalifa (ruled 1855-1909) Expanded Qasr Al Hosn further to reflect the emirate's increasing prominence.

Sheikh Shakhbut bin Sultan (ruled 1928-1966) Renovated and enlarged Qasr Al Hosn, adding a decorative arch and two new villas.

Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan (ruled 1966-2004) Moved the royal residence to Al Manhal palace and kept his diwan at Qasr Al Hosn.
