On Tuesday, Indonesia recovered one of the two black boxes of the Sriwijaya Air Boeing 737-500 plane that crashed in the Java Sea with 62 people on Saturday.

The black box was found on the seafloor between Lancang Island and Laki Island of Jakarta Gulf. It is being transported by a ship to the Jakarta seaport of Tanjung Priok.

Divers found Sunday the wreckage from flight SJ 182 after locating a signal from the Boeing jet's fuselage. A team has recovered human remains and parts of the plane from the site.

The Boeing aircraft plunged Saturday into the waters off the coast of Indonesia's capital Jakarta shortly after taking off from Soekarno-Hatta international airport in Jakarta, bound for Pontianak city in West Kalimantan province.

A total of 3,600 inpidual have been involved in the search mission, as well as 54 ships and 13 planes and helicopters.
