Well, indeed a Swiming pool in Sanur is not close to the met station in the
airport
About 4 miles due East of 027 Threshold actually. Close enough to know whether to get out of the pool if TS are close. Winds almost zero and low clouds both East and West so agree that West of the airport, given the prevailing SE winds at this time of year (Although just changing from W to SE and still oscillating), would not be visible from Sanur.
And regarding power loss option preference to land in the sea rather than "Hit" the sea wall or runway, at DPS the wall is ABOUT 15 Ft and the option is NOT to ditch because there is very obvious and shallow reef all the way in. That's not a "Sully" option, perhaps "Hobson's choice" in the event of power loss?
Looks like a power problem leaving no options or total incompetence but agree that speculation at this stage with no real technical information is useless.
