Load of trouble sets cargo jet ablaze in Papua, Indonesia | Perth Now

Wamena, Papua, this afternoon, Nusantara BAe146.

...which was posted in response to the structure of your original query.

The poor old Quadrapuff looks like it has drawn her last breath ... poor girl :(

It used to be JJY of the Wombat Division :{

I guess it was not the oil but petrol. They regularly carry drums with petrol and diesel on these flights to Wamena.

ex Ansett VH-JJY

One of the fuel drums leaked whist unloading and spilled onto the hot brakes (no reservers) and Boom.

I have some pics which ill try to add later.

what a waste of good oil.

Q. What's the difference between a BAe146 and an onion?

A. Nobody cries when they cut up a BAe146.

How the **** was this moved to this forum? Would have thought it would be rumours and news.

Oh well..

Oh come on, Skystar. It's (was) only a 146...cough cough.

How does one say "oh bugger" in Indonesian?

Buang air besar is a close approximation

It'll buff out:-):E

Looks like the donks are still running in that photo, I guess stopped or running ...similar thrust rating:E

The Mods will slam this closed soon due lack of fiction!:-)

It's sad to see another BAe 146 hit the dust... Many of hours were spent in the 146...

Wamena's good at claiming BAe146's............this is its second one in just over four years.

The last one was the CFIT accident involving PT. Aviastar Mandiri, BAe 146-300, PK–BRD, in the circuit at Wamena on 9 April 2009. Aircraft destroyed and the 6 crew members fatally injured.

I really miss the mighty 146

As much as I did not like the 146 that much it is sad to see this happen. Did quite a few hours on JJY.
What happened to JJZ?

JJZ is now OB-1978T with Star Peru.
