Families of the 162 people aboard the AirAsia Bhd. airliner that crashed three days ago broke into tears and anguished wails as authorities confirmed that debris found off the coast of Borneo was from Flight 8501.
Shock ensued at Juanda Airport’s makeshift crisis center in the Indonesian city of Surabaya as people fainted. One person was taken from the waiting room by a stretcher. Some reacted in anger, with one AirAsia employee railing at a television reporter whose station showed footage of a bloated and nearly naked corpse bobbing up and down on the waves. There has been no mention of survivors.
