Indonesia jet explodes on landing
« on: March 07, 2007, 10:55:00 AM »
An Indonesian jet has crashed and burst into flames on landing at Yogyakarta airport in Java, killing 22 people.
The state-owned Garuda airline, which operated the Boeing 737-400, confirmed that 118 people had survived.

Indonesia's president immediately announced an investigation into the crash in Yogyakarta, 440km (270 miles) south-east of Jakarta.

Indonesia's safety record has been in the spotlight recently after a series of accidents, correspondents say.
