Searching team from Indonesian Navy prepare diving equipments for their searching operation in Pangkalan Bun, Central Kalimantan, Indonesia, Jan. 1, 2015. The search for 162 people who vanished Sunday aboard the AirAsia Flight QZ8501 was severely limited Wednesday by heavy rain, wind and thick clouds over the Java Sea, forecast to last through Friday. Choppy conditions prevented divers from entering the water and helicopters were largely grounded. (Xinhua/Agung Kuncahya B.)
