Search teams in Indonesia have found the bodies of all 54 passengers on board the Trigana Air plane that crashed two days ago.
The aircraft was destroyed when it slammed into a mountain, killing all 54 people on board.
Rescuers only reached the crash site today after being hindered by rugged, forested terrain and bad weather.
“The plane was totally destroyed and all the bodies were burned and difficult to identify,” National Search and Rescue Agency chief Henry Bambang Soelistyo told The Associated Press. “There is no chance anyone survived.”
The bodies have all now been recovered, and Mr Bambang Soelistyo said they would be taken to Jayapura, the capital of Papua province, so they can be identified.
Smouldering wreckage of the Trigana Air Service turboprop plane was spotted from the air on Monday.
The ATR42-300 twin turboprop plane was flying from Jayapura to the city of Oksibil when it lost contact.
The plane was carrying 49 passengers and five crew members on a scheduled 42-minute flight. Five children, including two infants, were among the passengers.
Mr Soelistyo said the wreckage was at an altitude of about 8,500 feet. Much of Papua is covered with impenetrable jungles and mountains.
Some planes that have crashed in the past have never been found.
The airline said all the passengers were Indonesians, and included three local government officials and two members of the local parliament who were to attend a ceremony in Oksibil marking the 70th anniversary of Indonesia’s independence from Dutch colonial rule.
Oksibil, about 175 miles south of Jayapura, was experiencing heavy rain, strong winds and fog when the plane lost contact with the airport minutes before it was scheduled to land.
