Trigana Air Flight 267 crashed Sunday shortly before it was scheduled to land in Oksibil, Indonesia.
It wasn’t until Tuesday that search crews could reach the wreckage due to the rough terrain. When they did, they reported the plane was “totally destroyed” and that there were no survivors.
Officials have found 53 of the 54 passengers and crew aboard the ill-fated plane. In addition to those aboard, the plane was carrying about a half million dollars in government funds to be distributed to poor families.
This is the 14th serious incident for the airlines, which began operation in 1991. With its less than stellar safety record, Trigana Air is banned from European Union airspace.
