Flight

The aircraft took off at 08:40 WIB from Halim Perdanakusuma Airport in Jakarta. The aircraft later landed at Husein Sastranegara International Airport in Bandung at 09:00. Two sessions of parachute jumps from the aircraft were planned. The first session occurred at 09:30 for 17 parachutists, all jumped safely. Seventeen parachutists and an instructor were on board the aircraft for the second session at 12:36. However, the flight crew was aware that the weather in the airport were deteriorating, deciding to return to base.

The aircraft was hit by lightning, nose dived and crashed into the hangar, killing everyone on board. Rescue teams found that all of the victims had suffered extreme injuries, making identification difficult.[2]

Because the accident occurred at lunch time, the hangar was relatively empty and nobody on the ground was injured. However, the F27 impacted four aircraft inside the hangar: a NC-212 and a Boeing 737 belonging to Batavia Air, seriously damaging both; an Adam Air Boeing 737 and an Indonesian Aerospace CN-235 received minor damage.[3]
