An Indonesian cargo plane has crash landed in West Papua while attempting a landing on Tuesday. The PT Trigana Air Service Boeing 737-300 aircraft was attempting to land in low cloud when it slammed into the runway and skidded along for about a kilometer at the Wamena Airport.
No lives were lost in the crash, but Authorities have now closed the airport, which receives roughly 150 flights per day, until the wreck can be cleared from the runway. The cargo plane was reportedly carrying 14,913 tonnes of fuel supplies for Indonesia's remote Jayapura and Wamena regions.
