A Lion Air Boeing 737-400, flight JT-716 from Jakarta to Pontianak (Indonesia), landed on Pontianak's runway 15 in rain at about 19:45L (12:45Z) but overran the end and overrun area and came to a stop with all wheels on soft ground a few meters past the end of the paved surface. No injuries occurred, there was no visible damage to the aircraft.

The airport reported the aircraft was landing in torrential rain and slipped on the runway coming to a stop past the end of the runway.

detikNews : Hendak Memutar, Roda Belakang Lion Air Keluar Jalur di Pontianak

Translated by Bing"(edited for better sentences):
the right Rear wheels Lion Air aircraft off track at Supadio Airport, Pontianak, West Kalimantan, (WIOO). The wheel sunk off track when about to rotate toward the apron.

General Director of Lion Air, Edward, saying the right wheel of the plane sunk at around 22.00 pm. At that time, the plane had just landed from Jakarta.

"The right wheels out of the runaway, sunk. Happened last night, after landed from Jakarta, "said Edward told detikcom, this Sunday (30/12/2012).Edward surmised, the plane seemed to be turning too sharply on landing. But the front wheels themselves were still in line (on paved surface)

No surprise at WIOO!

When it rains here, the runway has standing water all over it.

The sad sad state of runway conditions in Indonesia.
