Indonesia Trigana Air Twin Otter crashed landing

On Sunday, Jan 11, DHC-6 Twin Otter cargo flight was rolled over by strong winds on landing at Enarotali Airport, Paniai, Papua. Three crew, no pax, nobody hurt except the Twin Otter....

This is reported in The Straits Times of 12 January, mentioned at the very end of the article on recovery of FDR from the Airbus, in article referenced by mmurray in post 1820 on the thread about the ditched Airbus320 8501.

This report says it was picking up passengers from the Freeport mining company who were on holidays in Paniai when it went off the runway in strong winds. Probably a charter flight on a ferry with no passengers at the time. Not big news in Indonesia as these kinda incidents are a common occurance and there is much bigger fish for the media to fry at the moment. (And glad to hear it wasn't Alex).
