n Asia Link Foker 27-500 cargo plane, flying from Seletar Airport in Singapore, ground to a halt soon after landing at Hang Nadim International Airport in Batam, Riau Islands at 12:15 p.m. on Wednesday.
Batam Free Trade Zone Authority (BPK-FTZ) spokesman Dwi Djoko Wiwoho said that there were no casualties in the incident. The plane was carrying electronic materials, which were to be distributed to factories in the city.
Dwi said the plane skidded to a stop on the east side of the airport’s taxiway after its front wheel broke. He added that the incident did not disrupt other flight schedules at the airport. The airport’s officials are still investigating the cause of the incident.
