Indonesia Unlikely To Publish AirAsia Crash Report

Indonesia is unlikely to publish publicly the full preliminary report on Air Asia plane crash that killed 162 people in December.

Indonesian investigators may release some initial findings but the full preliminary report will not be made public, a government official said.

Investigators are expected to submit a preliminary report to the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) in late January in line with ICAO regulations that the preliminary report must be filed within 30 days of the date of the accident.

Data from radar and the aircraft's two "black box" flight recorders is providing investigators with a clearer picture of what occurred during the final minutes of Flight QZ8501.

The Airbus A320-200 vanished from radar screens on Dec. 28, less than halfway into a two-hour flight from Indonesia's second-biggest city of Surabaya to Singapore. There were no survivors.

The final report of the crash investigation findings, which will be made public, must be filed within a year.
