Un avión de Lion Air cae al mar en Bali sin causar muertes.
Estimadas tripulaciones de vuelo queremos compartir con ustedes “Special Bulletin” sobre el
accidente de la aerolínea Lion Air, sucedido hace 2 semanas el cual se considera de auténtico milagro
pues la aeronave se salió de la pista y se partió en el mar sin víctimas mortales; el avión de la
compañía indonesia, conocida por haber firmado con Airbus el mayor contrato de la aviación civil,
cayó al mar cerca de la pista de aterrizaje en el aeropuerto de Bali sin causar muertos entre las 108
personas que iban a bordo. El avión, un Boeing 737-800, sólo había estado en uso por Lion Air desde
marzo.
Lion Air no puede volar en el espacio aéreo europeo y estadounidense, donde es considerada "una
compañía aérea de riesgo". También tiene mala reputación en Indonesia. Entre 2004 y 2006 tuvo seis
accidentes, ninguno de ellos mortal, pero ocasionados con frecuencia por aparatos que se salían de
la pista de aterrizaje o la erraban. Lion Air es la principal compañía privada de Indonesia, con un
crecimiento astronómico gracias al auge del transporte aéreo en el país. Saltó a las portadas de
medio mundo al firmar el mayor contrato de la historia de la aviación civil: un pedido de 234 Airbus
A320 por 18.400 millones de euros. Y hace menos de año y medio, en noviembre de 2011, Lion Air ya
había anunciado la compra de 230 Boeing 737 de medio recorrido por 21.700 millones de dólares
(17.000 millones de euros).

Lion Air Boeing 737-800 undershoots into the sea
on final approach to Denpasar, Bali, Indonesia.

Denpasar on April 13th.

Undershot into the sea
According to early press reports, the aircraft appears to have undershot following a
VOR/DME approach to Runway 09 at Denpasar; coming down in the sea just short of the
runway. The aircraft came to rest in shallow water, with the fuselage broken into two parts,
beside the sea wall, about 150m short of the runway threshold.
It is reported that the approach was being flown by the co-pilot but, as the aircraft descended
through between 400 and 200ft amsl, it entered a region of very heavy rain - 'we hit a wall of
water' - and visual contact with the runway was lost. The captain took over control and began
a go-around but it would seem that a positive rate of climb was not established. The aircraft
'dropped' and was 'dragged down', apparently impacting the sea before control could be
regained.

The accident happened in daylight (1510L). The 1500L (0700Z) weather was, wind
090deg./6kt, unlimited visibility and broken cloud at 1,700ft; however, in the 1530L (0730Z)
weather the wind had go round to 150deg./6kt., variable between 110 and 270deg. There
were said to have been 'storms' in the area at the time of the accident.
All passengers, 95 adults, 5 children and an infant, and crew survived the impact and
subsequently either swam/waded the short distance to the sea wall or were rescued by small
boats. It is understood that some 46 of the occupants suffered some injury in the accident
with 5 people being kept in hospital at least overnight.
The aircraft was operating a domestic flight (JT904) from Bandung. It is believed that most if
not all of the passengers were Indonesian nationals.
Brand new aircraft.
The Boeing 737-8GP (PK-LKS, msn 38728, line number 4350) was brand new having made
its first flight as recently as 5 February this year and was delivered to Lion Air on 19
February. It is understood that the aircraft is leased from Avolon Aerospace.
Lion Air
The Lion Air is Indonesia’s largest private airline (owned by Rusdi Kirana and family) and
currently operates with a fleet of 88 aircraft including two Boeing 737-300s, three -400, 14 800s and 67 -900s and two Boeing 747-400s. The airline has several hundred orders for
Airbus A320s and Boeing 737s outstanding.
Lion Air, based at Jakarta, was established in October 1999 as a ‘low cost’ carrier and began
operations with one aircraft in June 2000. The airline has expanded rapidly and now
operates over an extensive domestic network. It also operates to a number of regional
destinations including Singapore, Malaysia and Vietnam and has plans to expand
international operations further in the near future. The airline also operates a daily service to
Jeddah, Saudi Arabia using its two Boeing 747s.
In the last five years the airline has carrier some 100 million passengers (32 million during
2012) and generated about 98 billion RPKs.
Lion Air loss experience
The accident on April 13 is the fifth total loss and the seventh major accident to be suffered
by the airline since its start of operations. One of these accidents, in 2004, was fatal with 23
passengers and two crew members being killed in the accident.
Most airlines in Indonesia, including Lion Air, have been banned from operating in the EU
due to safety concerns arising from the lack of adequate oversight of civil aviation in the
country.
