Indonesian officials say search teams have spotted debris at sea in the hunt for missing AirAsia Flight QZ8501.<\/p>\n
Several objects were seen floating in the Java Sea off the Indonesian part of the island of Borneo, in one of the search zones for the plane.<\/p>\n
Indonesian officials said the find was the most significant so far in the search.<\/p>\n
The Airbus A320-200, carrying 162 people from Surabaya in Indonesia to Singapore, disappeared on Sunday.<\/p>\n
The search operation is now in its third day, with the area widened to cover 13 zones over land and sea.<\/p>\n
Indonesian Search and Rescue spokesman Yusuf Latif told the Associated Press news agency that aircraft had been dispatched to pick up the debris for checking.<\/p>\n
“This is the most significant thing, but we cannot confirm anything until the investigation is completed,” he said.<\/p>\n
