AirAsia's Chief Executive Officer Tony Fernandes is taking an active stand on Twitter as he and the airline company deal with the crisis and pressure from the AirAsia QZ8501 plane that crashed on Dec. 28.

While some companies and executives would keep mum and shy away from social media during times of crisis, Fernandes is doing no such thing. The CEO, who is an avid Twitter user, continued using his official Twitter account to send out regular updates about the situation, encourage his employees and shoot down criticisms.

"As I have said we never hide," he wrote, "All will come out at right time. Focus is finding all guests and looking for families."

He also tweeted, "To all my staff stay strong. stay focused. Show the world why we have been world's best for 6 years running. Love you all."

Fernandes also shot down headlines claiming that an AirAsia plane had an aborted takeoff through a tweet sent out Monday, calling them "silly headlines."

He also confirmed that the tail section of the missing plane was found, which likely contained the black box. It contains the flight data records of the plane and is important to help determine the cause of the crash.

The tail of the plane was found 11 days after the disappearance of the plane was found on the seabed of the Java Sea.

Its discovery was confirmed by Henry Bambang Soelistyo, the chief of the National Search and Rescue in Jakarta. He told reporters that underwater photographs of the seabed showed them the wreckage, as well as a grainy shot of an upside down letter A that is similar to the company logo. It was discovered around nine kilometers away from the where the plane last lost contact.

Soelistyo stated that their top priority as of now was to recover the black box and recover more bodies. So far, 40 corpses have been found out of the 161 people that were onboard the plane.

Allegations surfaced claiming that the crash was to violations made by AirAsia, something which the airline denied.
