Mandala B737 skidded off runway
Anyone know any info? Incident last night or this morning?
|
happened at Malang on monday afternoon.
JP says the 727-200 (??) skidded of the rwy in heavy rainfall after about 1000 m nearly hitting a tree before it came to a stop. Air Force personnel "sealed off" the accident site from arriving journalists... Isnt Mandala a semi-military controlled company ? Soure: http://www.thejakartapost.com/detail...219.G01&irec=0 |
Mandala
Just another dodgy Indo airline. Just look at the national safety records over the last 3 years, incl Mandala's crash on t/o at Medan not so long back. Phewwww!

Almost as good as Lion a couple of years ago at Pekanbaru, had already rotated 737, captain changes his mind, puts it back on the runway, and then straight off the end ! I stopped flying Singapore-Pekanbaru with Lion after that, as with this incident they sort of confirmed what had been in the back of my mind on previous flights :uhoh:
