There has been another aircraft crash in Indonesia, this time involving an Indonesian Air Force Fokker F-27 transport. All 24 people on-board died when the F-27 plowed into a hangar while the pilot was trying to land in heavy rain outside Bandung.

There were five passenger aircraft and a helicopter in the hangar at that time, and one of the fixed-wing aircraft suffered some slight damage in the incident.

The video below, taken from an Indonesian television channel, shows what could have happened via computer simulation. However, it is still not clear what led to the incident and the Indonesian Air Force is conducting an investigation.
