900XP Hawker Plane Slipped In Morowali, Central Sulawesi, Four Passengers Selamat

PALU - Maleo Airport Authority (Kabupaten) Morowali Regency, Central Sulawesi (Sulteng), said the skidded plane carried four passengers.

"The plane was carrying four passengers and four crew members. The incident occurred around 15.10 WITA," said Maleo Morowali Airport Head Sofyan Palandro as reported by ANTARA, Thursday, May 11.

The plane was damaged and passengers and crew were successfully evacuated safely.

Reportedly, the Hawker 900XP PK LRU aircraft departed from Halim Perdanakusuma Airport Jakarta to Morowali. When landing, the plane continued to drive until it exited the runway at Maleo Airport.
