There was joy and elation after a team of navy divers earlier on Monday
retrieved the flight data recorder from the wreckage. Divers have also
found the second black box, but they have not yet been able to free it
from debris on the floor of the Java Sea. Mr
Supriyadi confirmed the cockpit voice recorder was located on Monday
just hours after officials announced that the other black box - the data
flight recorder - had been brought to the surface.
He said the second black box was stuck under heavy wreckage, and divers are now working to lift it.
The
flight recorder monitors data such as airspeed and the aircraft's
heading, while the cockpit voice recorder stores radio transmissions and
sounds from within the cockpit.
