Singapore navy finds main body of the crashed AirAsia jet

A Singaporean navy ship has located the main body of the AirAsia plane that crashed into the Java Sea late last month, raising hopes that bodies of most of the 162 victims will now be found. Underwater photos showed the cracked fuselage and part of a wing of Flight QZ8501, that went down on December 28 in stormy weather during a short trip from the Indonesian city of Surabaya to Singapore. The discovery of the fuselage is the latest boost in a lengthy search operation in Indonesian waters hampered by bad weather.
