162 killed December 28, 2014 AirAsia 2014 Airliner Disaster An Airbus A320-216  operated as Indonesia AirAsia Flight 8501 crashed in bad weather, killing all 155 passengers and 7 crew on board.[8] Debris from the plane and human remains were found two days after the crash in the Karimata Strait. As major pieces of the plane appear to be intact, one official believes the plane probably exploded before hitting the water as the wreckage indicated that the plane likely "experienced an explosion" before hitting the water due to a significant change in air pressure. He said the left side of the plane seemed to have disintegrated. Another official believed there was no evidence to support such a theory. 41 of the victims, or more than a quarter of the total were members of the same pentacostal church in the predominantly Muslim nation of Indonesia.

*Factoids
  • distress call - no distress call
  • computer turned off theweek pilots ‘turned off critical computer system
  • pilot suicide - possible pilot deliberately climbed into a stall to make it look like he wasn't deliberately crashing by plunging straight down
  • soft landing theory: Mr Sudibyo said that emergency locator transmitters on board the aircraft would be set to go off after automatically after a heavy impact. Because these is no evidence these devices triggered,  he claims,  the pane (sic) must have landed safely.”

Indonesia AirAsia Flight 8501 (QZ8501/AWQ8501) was a scheduled international passenger flight, operated by AirAsia Group affiliateIndonesia AirAsia, from Surabaya, Indonesia, to Singapore. On28 December 2014, the aircraft operating the route, an Airbus A320-216, crashed in bad weather, killing all 155 passengers and 7 crew on board.[8] Debris from the plane and human remains were found two days after the crash in the Karimata Strait. The fuselage was located on 11 January 2015, and the flight data recorder was recovered from the sea the next day.[9][10] Further recovery is in progress.
The accident is the second-deadliest in Indonesia, behind Garuda Indonesia Flight 152 in 1997, and the second-deadliest involving an A320, behind TAM Airlines Flight 3054 in 2007.[11] It was also AirAsia Group's first fatal accident since its founding in 1996.

Disappearance[edit]

The flight departed from Juanda International Airport, Surabaya, at 05:35Western Indonesian Time (WIB, UTC+7) and was scheduled to arrive atSingapore Changi Airport at 08:30 Singapore Standard Time (SST, UTC+8).[12] The total aircraft weight at take-off, including 8,296 kg (18,290 lb) of fuel, was 63,624 kg (140,267 lb). The estimated fuel consumption for the trip was 5,121 kg (11,290 lb).[13]
The plane was under Indonesian air traffic control (Jakarta) when it requested and received permission to deviate left from its original flight path because of poor weather conditions.[14] The pilot then requested to climb from FL 320 to FL 380,[15] equivalent to 32,000 to 38,000 feet (9,750 to 11,600 m), giving no reason this time, according to the director of Safety and Standard AirNav Indonesia.[16] The request to climb was deferred by air traffic controllers because of heavy air traffic: there were seven other aircraft in the vicinity, all at higher altitudes.[17][18] ATC offered permission to climb at 06:14, but there was no acknowledgement from the pilots.[16] The aircraft disappeared from radar at 06:17 and the ADS-B transponder signal was lost at 06:18 WIB.[2] The last altitude recorded by Flightradar24 from the ADS-B transponder was 32,000 ft (9,750 m).[12] The plane disappeared near Belitung island, over the Java Sea betweenKalimantan (Borneo) and Java.[19][20] A meteorological analysis revealed that the aircraft was traversing a storm cluster during the minutes prior to its disappearance.[21]
The Indonesian Transport Ministry reported that no distress signal was sent from the aircraft.[22][23]

Aircraft[edit]

The aircraft was an Airbus A320-216,[b] with serial number 3648, registered as PK-AXC. It first flew on 25 September 2008, and was newly delivered to AirAsia on 15 October 2008. The aircraft had accumulated approximately 23,000 flight hours over 13,600 flights. It had undergone its most recent scheduled maintenance on 16 November 2014.[25]The aircraft was powered by two CFM International CFM56-5B6 engines and was configured to carry 180 passengers.[36]

AirAsia released details of the 155 passengers which included 137 adults, 17 children, and one infant. The crew consisted of two pilots and four flight attendants. A company engineer was also on board and was not counted as one of the passengers.[39]
The pilots aboard the flight were:[40]
  • Captain Iriyanto,[f] age 53, an Indonesian national, had a total of 20,537 flying hours, of which 6,100 were with AirAsia Indonesia on the Airbus A320. A resident of Sidoarjo, East Java, Iriyanto began his career with the Indonesian Air Force, graduating from pilot school in 1983 and flying F-5 and F-16 aircraft. He took early retirement from the Air Force in the mid-1990s to join Adam Air, and later worked for Merpati Nusantara Airlines and Sriwijaya Air before joining Indonesia AirAsia.[41]
  • First Officer Rémi Emmanuel Plesel, age 46, a French national, had a total of 2,275 flying hours with AirAsia Indonesia.[39] He was originally from Le Marigot, Martinique,[42] and had studied and worked in Paris. He was living in Indonesia.[43]

Recovery effort[edit]

Shortly after the plane was confirmed to be missing, unconfirmed reports stated that wreckage had been found off the island of Belitung in Indonesia.[44][45][46] Indonesia's National Search and Rescue Agency (Basarnas) deployed seven ships and two helicopters to search the shores of Belitung and Kalimantan.[47] The Indonesian Navy and the provincialIndonesian National Police Air and Water Unit each sent out search and rescue teams.[48] In addition, an Indonesian Air Force Boeing 737 reconnaissance aircraft was dispatched to the last known location of the airliner.[49]
The Indonesian Navy dispatched four ships by the end of the first search day and the Air Force deployed aircraft including a CASA/IPTN CN-235.[50] The Indonesian Army deployed ground troops to search the shores and mountains of adjacent islands.[51] Local fishermen also participated in the search.
Ongoing search and rescue operations were under the guidance of the Civil Aviation Authority of Indonesia.[52] The search was suspended at 7:45 pm local time on 28 December due to darkness and bad weather, to be resumed in daylight.[53] An operations center to coordinate search efforts was set up in Pangkal Pinang.[54] The search area was a 270-nautical-mile (500 km) radius near Belitung Island.[26]
Search and rescue operations quickly became an international effort. By 30 December naval and air units from Singapore, Malaysia and Australia had joined Indonesian authorities in patrolling designated search areas.[55]Singapore's Rescue Coordination Centre (RCC), managed by the Civil Aviation Authority of Singapore (CAAS) and supported by various agencies, including the Republic of Singapore Air Force (RSAF), had also initially deployed a C-130 Hercules aircraft to aid in the search and rescue operation.[56] An officer from Singapore will be deployed to Jakarta to coordinate with the Indonesian authorities on the search operations, and two more C-130 Hercules aircraft will be deployed for the second day of the search and rescue operation.[57] A Formidable-class frigate, a Victory-class corvette, a Landing Ship Tank, and a submarine support and rescue vessel subsequently took part in the search and rescue after Indonesia's National Search and Rescue Agency accepted the offer of help from the Republic of Singapore Navy. Basarnas also accepted an offer from Singapore's Ministry of Transport of help from specialist teams from the Air Accident and Investigation Bureau and underwater locator equipment.[57] The Malaysian government set up a rescue coordination centre at Subang and deployed three military vessels and three aircraft, including a C-130 Hercules, to assist in search and rescue operations.[58][59][60] Australia deployed a P-3 Orion to assist in the search and rescue operation.[61] India put three ships and P-8 Poseidon maritime surveillance aircraft on standby for assistance in the search operation, including one ship in the Bay of Bengal and another in the Andaman Sea.[62] Elements of theUnited States Navy joined the search effort following a request by the Indonesian Government. The USS Sampsonarrived on station late on 30 December to contribute to search efforts.[63] Another warship, USS Fort Worth arrived on3 January.[64]
Various vessels and aircraft from Indonesia, Singapore, Malaysia, Australia, South Korea, Japan, China, the United States, Russia and others participated in the search.[65][66][67][68] Basarnas reported that this fleet includes three ships with "under water" detectors and two fuel tankers seconded to ensure efficient operation of the vessels in the search area.[69] On 2 January the Indonesian Ministry of Transport reported that two other Indonesian tender vessels had been fitted with equipment which could detect acoustic signals from the flight recorder ("blackbox") beacons and airframe metal, as well as multibeam side scan sonar.[70] Personnel on both vessels included representatives from Singapore and the U.S. NTSB.

Wreckage[edit]

On 28 December, the day of the disappearance, a fisherman observed "a lot of debris, small and large, near Pulau Tujuh. [...] T looked like the Air Asia colours."[71][72][73] However, he only reported this the following evening, after he had returned home and heard of the incident. Another fisherman reported that, while moored on Sunday at Pulau Senggora, south of the town of Pangkalan Bun in Central Kalimantan, "Around 7am, I heard a loud booming sound. Soon afterwards, there was haze that usually happened only during the dry season. [...] Before the booming sound, my friends saw a plane from above Pulau Senggaro heading towards the sea. The plane was said to be flying relatively low but then disappeared."[74][75]
The fishermen's reports, delivered the next day, were credited with guiding the search and rescue team to the vicinity of the first debris found.[74] On 30 December, items resembling a plane door and an emergency slide were spotted by search aircraft, 10 kilometres (6.2 mi) from where the plane last contacted air traffic control; later, other debris was spotted in the surrounding area.[76][77][78] Indonesian authorities later confirmed that the item found in the Karimata Strait is a portion of an airframe.[79] Bodies, thought to be those of passengers, were found in the waters of Kumai Gulf, near Pangkalan Bun.[80][81] The Indonesian Navy was sent to the area immediately.[82] At 10:05 UTC, Reuters, quoting Indonesian official Manahan Simorangkir, reported that 40 bodies had been recovered,[83] but this was later retracted by an Indonesian navy spokesman as a "miscommunication by staff".[84] Indonesia's National Search and Rescue Agency chief Bambang Soelistyon stated that three bodies were recovered by the warship KRI Bung Tomo. At around 13:15 BBC News reported that the debris and bodies found in the Java Sea were from the Indonesia AirAsia Airbus A320.[85] Also on 30 December Indonesia's Search and Rescue Services reported that the wreckage of the aircraft had been located on the Java Sea floor, 97–100 nautical miles (180–185 km) southwest of Pangkalan Bun. The fuselage had broken up into several large parts but was still easily recognizable. The next day, the head of the Search and Rescue service denied that the fuselage had been found.[2]
On 31 December, Basarnas claimed that a sonar image obtained 30 December by an Indonesian naval ship appeared to show an aircraft upside-down on the seafloor in about 24–30 m (80–100 ft) of water, approximately 3.2–3.5 km (2.0–2.2 mi) from the debris found on 30 December.[86][87][88] The head of the Search and Rescue Agency also denied the existence of any sonar images of the wreckage (as well as the reported recovery of a body wearing a life vest).[2]He stressed that only official information from his Search and Rescue service can be considered to be reliable.
On 2 January 2015, Basarnas reported evidence of a fuel slick on the water surface in the search area, but detection of the fuselage remained unconfirmed.[69]
At a press conference given on the morning of 3 January by Basarnas, the discovery of two large submerged objects was reported: 9.4m × 4.8m × 0.4m, and a thin object 7.2m × 0.5m.[89] Also, the previously reported fuel slick was confirmed. A later media report mentioned four large sections of wreckage, the largest being 18m × 5.4m × 2.2m located at 3.9242°S 110.5252°E.[90] Later in the day, Basarnas announced[91] the discovery of the two larger "adjacent" objects in the afternoon of 3 January was confirmed, but apparently not "adjacent" to the first two somewhat separated items found the previous day. The two additional items were observed to be 18m × 5.4m × 2.2m and 12.4m × 0.6m × 0.5m. No more bodies were found, leaving the total at 30. The search resources were reported to include 5 fixed-wing aircraft, 9 helicopters, and 26 ships, including the two tankers. Fuel logistics for this fleet requires careful planning. Twenty-two Russian divers arrived. The 3–4m wave height on 4 January prevented diving, but better conditions were expected the following day. Personal effects such as glasses and shoes were discovered in the area.[92]
On 7 January divers found parts of the plane including a portion of the tail, which may contain the flight recorders.[93]Other portions of the tail are expected to lie nearby.[94][95]
On 9 January divers used an inflatable device to bring the aircraft's tail to the surface of the sea, but the data recorders were not recovered.[96][97] They continued to search the sea floor within 500 metres (1,600 ft) of where faint pings were heard.[98]
On 11 January Supriyadi, operations coordinator for the National Search and Rescue Agency, announced that a sonar scan had detected an object measuring 10 metres × 4 metres × 2.5 metres on the sea floor. It was reported that divers had begun work to verify the discovery and confirm that it was the fuselage of the missing aircraft. It was also announced that three ships had detected ultrasonic pings, possibly from a flight recorder, in water about 30 metres deep, about 4 km from where the plane's "tail" (vertical stabilizer attached to a small section of fuselage[99]) was raised the previous day.[9] One of the flight recorders was discovered by Indonesian divers, but they were unable to retrieve it as it was trapped under the main fuselage.[100]
On 12 January, Fransiskus Bambang Soelistyo, head of the Search and Rescue Service, announced at a news conference that the flight data recorder was recovered from the sea by Indonesian divers. The cockpit voice recorderremains to be found.[10]

Response and reaction[edit]


Secondary radar image shows Flight 8501 (circled in yellow) at an altitude of 36,300 ft (11,100 m) and climbing, travelling at 353 kn (654 km/h; 406 mph) ground speed.[2]
Following the disappearance, all AirAsia subsidiaries changed their website and social media branding to greyscale images, in mourning for the presumed deaths of the passengers; Changi Airport's Facebook page was similarly changed as well.[101][102] Malaysia Airlines, who had two hull losses the same year, followed suit a few days later.[103][104] An emergency call center has also been established by the airline, for family of those who were on board the aircraft,[105] and an emergency information center was set up at Juanda International Airport, providing hourly updates and lodging for relatives.[106]Smaller posts were also opened at Soekarno–Hatta International Airport[107]and Sultan Hasanuddin International Airport.[108] Leaders of nearby countries expressed condolences and offered assistance.[109][110]
On 31 December, Indonesia AirAsia retired the flight number QZ8501, changing it to QZ678. The return flight number was also changed, from QZ8502 to QZ679.[111] As of January 2015, the Surabaya-Singapore route for AirAsia are currently suspended.
BBC News reported on 2 January 2015 "that AirAsia did not have official permission to fly the Surabaya–Singaporeroute on Sunday – the day of the crash – but was licensed on four other days of the week", and, according to anIndonesian Ministry of Transport statement, "The Indonesian authorities are suspending the company's flights on this route with immediate effect pending an investigation".[112] In response on the same day, the Civil Aviation Authority of Singapore (CAAS) and the Changi Airport Group (CAG) made a clarification that AirAsia QZ8501 "has been given approval at Singapore's end to operate a daily flight for the Northern Winter Season from Oct 26, 2014 to Mar 28, 2015".[113]
On 6 January, according to BBC News, Indonesian Ministry of Transport representative Djoko Murjatmojo stated that "officials at the airport operator in Surabaya and [the] air traffic control agency who had allowed the flight to take off had been moved to other duties", and an immediate air transport directive had been issued "making it mandatory for pilots to go through a face-to-face briefing by an airline flight operations officer on weather conditions and other operational issues prior to every flight."[114]

    • January 12, 2015 Divers retrieve AirAsia 'black box', explosion theory questioned Reuters Indonesian navy divers retrieved the black box flight data recorder from the wreck of an AirAsia passenger jet on Monday, a major step towards unraveling the cause of the crash that killed all 162 people on board. One official saying the plane probably exploded before hitting the water and another disputing that theory. Supriyadi said the wreckage indicated that the plane likely "experienced an explosion" before hitting the water due to a significant change in air pressure. He said the left side of the plane seemed to have disintegrated, pointing to a change in pressure that could have caused an explosion. Supporting this possibility, Supriyadi added, was the fact that fishermen in the area had reported hearing an explosion and saw smoke above the water. But Santoso Sayogo, an investigator at the National Transportation Safety Committee believes "There is no data to support that kind of theory," [Fact that tail fin and wing and major pieces are intact indicates breakup in the air, not crashing into the water]

    4. Screen capture of a Reddit post, showing a loose translation of a post by an unknown blogger in a Chinese cyber forum which predicted the disappearance of the Indonesia AirAsia flight QZ8501.

    5. Dec 31 — A mystery blogger believed to be a Chinese national has stirred a frenzy online with claims he predicted the disappearance of the Indonesia AirAsia flight QZ8501 nearly two weeks before it happened.
      The original posts on a Chinese cyber forum has since spread to other international social networks including Reddit, where it has been loosely translated to claim that a shadowy global organisation had planned to take down the budget carrier, similar to how they had attacked two Malaysia Airlines planes, Flights MH370 and MH17 earlier this year.
      “Black Hand hijacked and shot down MH370 and MH17. This has pretty much killed the 6th largest airline—Malaysian airline.
      “Now the Black Hand is targeting AirAsia to ruin this airline because it too belongs to Malaysia. Given how powerful the Black Hand is, I suggest that all Chinese planning to travel, should avoid AirAsia, so that you don’t disappear like those on MH370,” according to a loose translation of the Chinese post by a Reddit member.
      Some online users have said the term “Black Hand” is a metaphor for a covert organisation instead of being the name of a particular group.
      “You could be happily vacationing, working, or studying aboard, but if you go on Malaysian airline or AirAsia, you’re dead, be careful everyone,” according to the warning.s of passengers onboard AirAsia flight QZ8501 in Juanda International Airport, Surabaya December 30, 2014. — Reuters pic

      The blogger reportedly urged readers to inform their family and friends to avoid taking any Malaysian airline.
