Indonesian plane crashes into sea, all 189 on board feared dead

An Indonesian airliner crashed into the sea on Monday, with the likely loss of all 189 people on board, as it tried to return to Jakarta minutes after take-off. Lion Air flight JT610, an almost new Boeing 737 MAX 8, was en route from the capital to Pangkal Pinang, centre of the Bangka-Belitung tin mining region. Indonesia is one of the world's fastest-growing aviation markets, but its safety record is patchy.
