A TOP Indonesian military official says fuselage of the crashed Lion Air jet may have been found.

Armed forces chief Hadi Tjahjanto said this afternoon a search and rescue effort has identified the possible location of the Boeing 737 MAX 8 in the Java Sea.

While search teams have found some debris and remains of passengers, they were still searching for the fuselage of the plane as well as the crucial black box recorders, which may help explain flight JT610’s mysterious crash.

“Based on the presentation of the head of the National Search and Rescue Agency, the coordinates of the suspected body of the aircraft have been found. We will send a team there to confirm,” the army chief said.

The possible discovery comes after search teams expanded their search 15 nautical miles from the area where the plane lost contact 13 minutes after takeoff from Jakarta airport on Monday.

A team will be sent to the identified seabed location to confirm this afternoon’s findings.

The development comes as Lion Air said it would be meeting with the plane’s manufacturer Boeing today to discuss the jet’s erratic performance and dramatic crash.

“Of course there are lots of things we will ask them, we all have question marks here, why? What’s the matter with this new plane?” Lion Air managing director Daniel Putut said, according to The Associated Press.

That video is NOT from the accident flight.

You can tell by the overhead lockers and cabin. The incident aircraft had the 'Boeing sky interior' and the aircraft in the video is the old style cabin.

Boeing redesigned the rudder system on 737 Next Gen aircraft years ago. The 737MAX has the new system so it's doubtful this was a rudder hardover. If you check the crash profiles of this crash flight compared to that of the 737 rudder hardover crashes you'll see they're very different.

It looks more like unreliable airspeed. Possibly the second such crash this year due to unreliable airspeed following the crash of SarAvia near Moscow in February this year.

No in-tact bodies found so far. Definitely a fast hit. Loads of plane parts found though.

Naah, the govt has been so discreet about all the body/body parts pics and vids
We have a gore/death pics+vids like forum too in Indonesia, but no one has anything
The ones that had it won't share it publicly because of the sanction that waits

They're talking about bad airspeed indication now?

See what happens next?
