Deputy Chief of Staff of the Indonesian Air Force (Wakasau) Marshal Madya Agustinus Gustaf Brugman said the evacuation of the EMB-314 Super Tucano TNI-AU fighter plane that crashed in the Gunung Bromo National Park area, Pamekasan Regency, East Java (East Java), could take a month.
"Because the terrain is quite difficult, the overall aircraft is likely to be completed in approximately a month's time," he said. He was met at the Puri Ardhya Garini building at Halim Perdanakusuma Air Base (Lanud) Jakarta in Jakarta, Thursday, November 23, and was confiscated by Antara. He explained that several difficulties experienced by the evacuation team, including difficult terrain in the form of steep routes and far from the highway, as well as large enough debris to be lifted. The condition of the crash site was foggy, thus blocking the operational distance of the evacuation team in the field. The evacuation team could not directly transport all the debris from that location. They had to cut the debris first so that it was easy to lift. He said that some aircraft debris, video data recorder (VDR), and a network data cartridge (NCDC) had been found by the evacuation team. He admitted that the progress of the evacuation effort could be achieved thanks to the help of local residents. "We are very grateful to the community later please convey to the community who sincerely help him very sincerely," he said. He hopes that the evacuation process carried out by the local residents can run optimally.
