Military chief Hadi Tjahjanto said on Tuesday he had 'high confidence' of finding the recorder soon.

Investigators will rely heavily on the two black boxes to determine the cause of the crash.
Indonesia's National Transportation Safety Committee (KNKT) expects to download the FDR data within two to five days.
The FDR contains about 25 hours of data on eight tracks and the CVR has 30 minutes of conversation, according to the final report on a similar model of a Boeing 737 which crashed in 2008.
