Divers continue to search through mud and plane debris in a bid to find the Indonesian Sriwijaya Air jet’s cockpit voice recorder, which is key to learning why the plane nosedived into the water over the weekend.

Indonesian navy divers on Tuesday recovered the flight data recorder from the jet that disappeared on Saturday minutes after taking off from Jakarta with 62 people aboard.
