Indonesian air crash investigators have started working to determine what caused a new passenger jet to miss a runway while landing in Bali and crash into the sea.
A data recorder remains in the submerged tail section The Boeing 737-800 overshot the runway on the resort island and plunged into shallow water near the airport boundary.
All 101 passengers and seven crew members safely escaped from the Lion Air plane, although up to 45 people suffered injuries.
Some were forced to swim to safety while others waiting atop the wings of the twin-engine jet to be rescued by boat.
The rear broke free after being hit by tide and swell Transportation Ministry spokesman Bambang Ervan said the National Transportation Safety Committee (NTSC) is examining the wreckage.
He said aviation authorities have removed the flight data recorder from the aircraft operated by West Java-based budget air carrier.
Local fisherman and eyewitness Fendi Yono said: "I saw two planes approaching the runway.
Investigators retrieved items from the sea near the Denpasar airport "The first one landed smoothly while the second plane went very slowly (before it crashed into the sea), probably because the weather was foggy at the time."
The fuselage of the recently purchased plane was fractured during the crash.
Waves hitting the plane completely severed the rear of the aircraft from the main body, causing it to partially submerge.
Possessions spilled from the plane after the accident Survivor Santi Widiastuti said: "I don't know how this accident happened. I just heard a notification that the aircraft would be landing soon.
"Not long after that notice, I heard a loud noise like a plane crashing into something. Suddenly, from under the deck, water began to enter the plane. All happened so fast."
Salvage crews are now hoping to tow the aircraft and retrieve its cockpit voice recorder, which is located in the tail.
The plane overshot the runway on the resort island in Indonesia Last month Lion Air signed a £18bn deal with Airbus for 234 passenger jets and two years ago it signed a contract with Boeing for 230 planes.
However, the rapidly-expanding carrier is reportedly banned from US and European airspace due to safety concerns.
Between 2004 and 2006, Lion Air suffered a series of six accidents, which all involved planes overshooting or missing the runway, although no one died in those incidents.
