The NTSC Brings The Black Box Of The 900XP Hawker Plane That Slipped In Morowali

PALU - The National Transportation Safety Committee (NTSC) has brought a black box or black box belonging to the Hawker 900XP PK LRU aircraft to be investigated as part of the investigation process to reveal the cause of the plane crash incident at Maleo Airport, Morowali Regency, Central Sulawesi.

"The Black box has been brought by the NTSC team for further investigation to find out what caused this accident," said Morowali Police Chief AKBP Suprianto as quoted by ANTARA, Friday, May 12.

The investigation process carried out by the NTSC lasted for seven hours, starting at 09.00 WITA until 16.00 WITA. The NTSC team consists of two people accompanied by airline management and airport authorities as well as police officers.

A number of aircraft parts were also examined in detail and including the airport runway as well as photos to be used as supporting material for the investigation process.

From that process, about four pieces of evidence have been given to the NTSC for further investigation, including one of the black boxes.

"It is not certain the cause of this incident, because it is still in process. Flight footage is in the black box and from the recordings it will be a strong evidence to determine the cause of the incident," he said.

The cause of the Hawker 900 plane incident skidded at Maleo Morowali Airport only when the investigation process was completed, and the party entitled to convey it was the authority of the NTSC.

"Our job is to carry out security during field investigations, including maintaining the security of the fuselage," he added.

After an investigation, the Hawker 900 Aircraft agency was subsequently evacuated using a special tool by the airline authorities to be moved to a safe place in the airport area for the time being.

"The aircraft agency was evacuated after the field investigation process was completed by the NTSC. Further investigations at their office examined the recorded footage in the black city," said Suprianto.
