It's a 738, not a 739. PK-LKS. Was registered in Malaysia last month as 9M-LNB which OD used for proving flights.

Oh, and it was delivered 19/2/2013......

[Handiman]

OMG your intel so sharp ! Tq for corrections.

Guess their convocation cards in every seat did not work this time round...

So that's what a sea lion looks like....

[CarbonMan]

No problem. They have lots of spares coming in. Perhaps that's why they ordered so many.

Aircraft didn't overshoot, it "missed the runway". What exactly does that mean?

Means it wasn't a RWY 27 landing that overran into the sea on the west end.

It was a RWY 09 Landing that landed short on the west end BEFORE the runway.

a RWY 09 overshoot - would have meant ploughing through the road on the eastern end that links the southern bali dumbbell area to the north (and thereby cutting savage25's only hope of getting to the IC Jimbaran).
