This is a video of the aircraft just prior to the accident. Is it any wonder why they ended up on the grass?

This part of Indonesia is cowboy country. At Sentani near Jayapura you often see aircraft of all sizes turn on to final at a heights of less than 500 ft including Boeing 737 freighters, as they weave their way in and around cloud in marginal VMC conditions. G-I-L-A !! (CRAZY !!)
