Indonesian aviation officials say they have located both black boxes on crashed Indonesian airliner.
Indonesian aviation officials referred to the "cockpit" sound and flight's "data recorder" and said that "black box" provided important information to help people understand what had happened before the crash.
"We have been able to locate both black boxes," said Sorjanto Tazzanto, head of Indonesia's transport security body. "Divers will soon be looking for the device and soon black box will be pulled out of the water."
Earlier, rescuers pulled out the wreckage of a crashed plane from waters near Indonesian capital, Jakarta, and pieces of clothing.
Passenger plane that flew from Jakarta on Saturday afternoon crashed into the sea near Jakarta within minutes of taking off.
There were 62 people on board, including the crew. Preliminary investigations have revealed that Boeing 737-500 of Srivijaya Air, which flew from Jakarta's Sokarno-Hata International Airport, fell directly into the sea within four minutes of taking off.
