Motorcycle collides with plane, kil

2010 Reader Submission
Pending Acceptance

Two people riding a motorcycle died after hitting a training plane that was landing at the Indonesian State Aviation School Budiarto airbase in Curug, Tangerang regency, Banten, on Monday. Legok Police chief Insp. Rahmat identified the two victims as Yopie Hermawan, 16, a senior high-school student who lived in Kemuning village, Legok, Tangerang regency, and Azumar, 24, a resident of Timur kampong, Serang, Banten, who worked at a minimarket. Azumar was driving the motorcycle when the accident happened. “The bodies of the victims were sent to the Tangerang General Hospital morgue for post-mortem examination,” said Rahmat, adding that the bodies were later sent to their families Monday evening. Chairman of the aviation school Darwin Amini said the accident occurred at about 8:30 in the morning when two students, Teza Aria Putra and Supaska Abidllah, were landing a Tobago TB10 training aircraft. The plane, under the controls of Supaska and his flying instructor Teza Ariaputra, was landing when the motorcycle hit its right wing and the pilots lost control. “The plane then rolled 100 meters from the runway,” Darwin said. He said the motorists had died instantly. The two flight students were rushed to Siloam Gleneagles Hospital in Karawaci with serious head and leg injuries. The hospital’s deputy director Mangantar Marpaung said a team of doctors had operated on both victims Monday afternoon. “As of now, they are still unconscious. They will be treated intensively here,” he said. Many local residents use the restricted airfield as a short cut to the nearby main road. Residents living on the eastern side of the runway have cut a hole in the airfield’s fence so that they can enter the compound on motorcycle or foot. The National Transportation Safety Commission sent a team led by Toos Saniotoso and Santosi to investigate the incident. “Preliminary information gathered in the field showed that motorists frequently cross the runway as a shortcut,” he said. Udin Samsudin, a relative of Yopie, one of victims who died in the accident, admitted that using the runway as a shortcut was dangerous. “We realized that [the runway area] was not for public use but officers have never banned people from using the runway so we just use it as a shortcut,” he said. Transportation Ministry spokesman Bambang Supriyadi Ervan said residents often cut through the fence and then placed a plank of wood over the adjacent gutter to make the shortcut accessible to motorcycles. “They want to save time and don’t consider the risks of their action,” he said. Bambang asked local residents to raise awareness that driving on the airstrip was illegal and dangerous.

Definitely Toss: Repeat
Thanks, but we've already received this. We can't accept it because one of the flight students, and arguably the passenger on the motorcycle, are considered hurt bystanders since they aren't in any way responsible for what happened.
