AirAsia Flight QZ8501 from Surabaya, Indonesia, en route to Singapore on 28 December 2014, crashed in bad weather, killing all 155 passengers and seven crew on board. Two days after the crash, debris from the plane and human remains were found floating in the Karimata Strait.
Searchers located wreckage on the sea floor beginning on 3 January, and the flight data recorder and cockpit voice recorder were recovered by 13 January.
Today the Indonesian military announced that the recovery operation is over after 31 days. In all searchers have managed to recover 70 bodies from the sea, leaving 92 still unaccounted for.
2014 is certainly a tragic year for Malaysian aviation.
