Indonesian rescuers pulled out body parts, pieces of clothing and scraps of metal from the Java Sea on Sunday morning, a day after a Boeing 737-500 with 62 people on board crashed soon after take-off from Jakarta, officials said.

Authorities were hopeful they were honing in on the wreckage of Sriwijaya Air Flight 182 after sonar equipment detected a signal from the aircraft.
