Screenshoot from YouTube about Falling Sriwijaya Air SJ 182

The Sriwijaya Air commercial airplane with flight code SJ 182 on Jakarta-Pontianak route was reported to have fallen in the waters of Kepulauan Seribu, Saturday (9/1/2021) noon. The plane was previously said to have lost contact minutes after takeoff.

After being traced, the plane of the Sriwijaya Air airline that crashed is made by Boeing company with the type 737-500 registration code PK-CLC.

"That there has been a lost contact on the Sriwijaya aircraft on the Jakarta-Pontianak route with the SJ 182 call sign. The last contact occurred at 14:40 WIB. We are also concerned about this incident," said Transportation Minister Budi Karya Sumadi in a press conference.

The news of this plane crash has gone viral since yesterday and it is reported that the existence of black box of SJ 182 has been found by the authorities along with the wreckage of that plane.

But what was even more touching for me was when I saw a fragment of news footage on YouTube about the victim's last video. In the video, it appears that the weather before the departure of the SJ 182 plane was really very bad.

This of course raises a lot of questions for lay people like me. It was clear that the weather was bad, but why did Sriwijaya Air still insist on flying? True, that no one knows fate, but at least we must understand the warning from the Almighty.

If we examine it in more detail, actually God always warns every servants. It's just that, as humans we really don't realize or maybe don't want to be aware of it. May we always be in God's protection.
