Indonesia gov't to investigate all Indonesia AirAsia flight schedules after crash
Indonesia's transport ministry will investigate all Indonesia AirAsia flight schedules from Monday, an official told Reuters, as part of a government probe into the passenger jet that crashed.
"We are going to investigate all AirAsia flight schedules," Djoko Muratmodjo, acting general director for air navigation in the transport ministry said on Saturday. "Hopefully we can start on next Monday. We won't focus on licences, just schedules."
"It is possible AirAsia's license in Indonesia might be revoked," he said, stressing that was only one possibility.
The transport ministry on Friday temporarily suspended Indonesia AirAsia's Surabaya-Singapore flights because it had apparently operated the service beyond the scope of its licence, which permitted flights on four days of the week but not Sundays, when the crash occurred.
"We will also investigate the party that gave permission to AirAsia to fly on that day," Muratmodjo added.
