AirAsia has said that it would cooperate with the investigations. Tony Fernandes, its founder, has described the crash - the first in the carrier's 12-year history - as his "worst nightmare", now made worse by allegations of licence violation in its biggest market in Asean outside of home base Malaysia. The investigation is also untimely since only some 37 bodies out of the 162 people on board the ill-fated Airbus A320-200 have been retrieved so far because bad weather has hampered recovery efforts. No one is believed to have survived the crash which initial crash probes suspect was the result of a violent storm and ice formation on the wings, causing the plane to stall.
