Sriwijaya Air Flight 182 Crashes Near Jakarta: All 62 Aboard Killed
The Boeing 737 never should've been at 10,000 feet. One moment passengers were settling into their seats, the next: total silence.

But nothing prepares you for how quickly 62 lives can vanish: families, workers, dreams, all gone in seconds over cold, unforgiving waters.
