If it undershot 09, that's a water impact along way from the threshold. Sadly, Lion have a massive systemic problem at all levels but once again, its the Indonesian regulators that have failed in their duty to Audit this mob..corruption hits the mark every time. Lion should have had their AOC pulled years ago.

I believe it was an overrun from 27. There's no way it undershot 09... There is so much coral poking out of the sea on final it woulda been ripped to pieces... Not to mention the crew not knowing what to do. Heard FO was P2F from Holland... Even if it was a mechanical issue or due to a severe tailwind caused by windshear, my opinion on the P2F issue still stands.

As Pucka says, "If it undershot 09, that's a water impact along way from the threshold" and looking at the sat image of the undershoot it is difficult to work out where and how. If it was, it was some undershoot!
Braviator - that does not make sense! "I believe it was an overrun from 27. There's no way it undershot 09. There is so much coral poking out of the sea on final it woulda been ripped to pieces." - same place??

and the wind, there is not at first a microburst, gust or squall in my mind. How far away is wind mast from treshold?

@ BOAC... If it undershot runway 27 it would have ended up on the Freeway... If it undershot 09 it would have ended up in the sea, in a million pieces. So it wasn't an undershoot on 09, it landed 27 and looks like if anything it rolled through and ended up in the sea at the end of 27 (which, yes, would happen to be final of 09...) Make sense now?

The way Lion Air is operating...they have the odds stacked against them. Glad to see that everyone survived (apparently), this could have ended so much worse.
I'm a free market economics kind of person, but I have to admit, the older I get, the more I feel some of the basic assumptions are flawed. People simply aren't rational. And consumers often don't know what they buy. For outfits like Lion Air, eventually insurance companies might put their foot down and require certain conditions to be met (assuming they are rational), but hell yes, I'd sure like to see more government oversight for outfits like Lion Air, it could add an extra layer of safety, before it's too late (again assuming bureaucrats are rational).

Wow crazy they really need to beef up their standard if it was indeed pilot error
far too many times for Lionair, it really can`t be bad luck systematic bad flight crew and training, there are no shorts cuts to being a good pilot, hard work, experience, planning and relentless detail to flight regardless as someone mentioned Lionair has lots of flights.
On another note i seem to see a pattern with 737 that have overshot runways they seem to breakup, this was covered a few years ago on al jazeera with 2 boeing employees whistle blowing on bad company practices on manufacturing and build, seems they were spot on, and please this is not an airbus vs boeing observation, i flew both and love both
, each have their own qualities. - just saying as i see it -

Indonesian govt where about to relax the 250 hrs on type rule to allow Lion air to employ less experience ( pay to Fly) pilots . Think it may cost Lion air even more now to make that happen .
AvHerald
Now saying it landed short while approaching 09:
Accident: Lionar B738 at Denpasar on Apr 13th 2013, came to stop in sea

Ref Aviation Herald "Radar data confirm the aircraft was approaching runway 09 and suggest the aircraft was about 100 feet below a 3 degrees glidepath descending at 700 feet per minute at a speed between 126 and 135 knots over ground, descending through 200 feet MSL about 1nm short of the touch down zone and 0.6nm short of the sea wall."
