An Indonesian rescue helicopter flies over Crest Onyx ship as divers (R-in rubber boats) conduct operations to lift the tail of AirAsia flight QZ8501 in the Java Sea January 9, 2015. Indonesia search and rescue teams hunting for the wreck of the AirAsia passenger jet detected pings in their efforts to find the black box flight recorders on Friday, an official said, 12 days after the plane went missing with 162 people on board. Indonesia AirAsia Flight QZ8501 vanished from radar screens on Dec. 28, less than half way into a two-hour flight from Indonesia’s second-biggest city of Surabaya to Singapore. There were no survivors. REUTERS/Adek Berry/Pool (MID-SEA – Tags: DISASTER TRANSPORT MILITARY ENVIRONMENT MARITIME)
