27/2250 VRB/05kts doesn't give much of a clue to r/wy in use.

Final position of aircraft - the Lion Air 904 water undershoot at Bali in 2013 ended up at 90 degrees to r/way heading.
Given that it took 4 hrs for Air Niugini to make a website statement, it seems strange that the circumstances wouldn't be known to them (or perhaps not...)
