LUWUK - 1st coming #2

I don't remember for sure, the date of my 1st coming to Luwuk.
I only remember, It was October 2011.

Spontaneously, P.Dono, my Construction Manager, decided to visit Luwuk for surveying the actual site condition.
Without any preparation, we went to Luwuk.

At that time, there were 2 air flight to Luwuk, Batavia Air and Merpati Air, and we got the Batavia Air.
The departure was Jakarta. It was too bad, we had to transit in 2 airports, 1st transit in Surabaya, then continued in Makassar.

We landed at Makassar in the afternoon, and we would have the connecting flight to Luwuk in another 1 hour.

..tik..tok..tik..tok..
3 hours left, finally..yesss..we got the call..BUT hell yeah...flight to Luwuk was postponed to the next day in early morning.  o.O

There was plane technical problem. No choice.
Batavia facilitated all passengers nearest hotel to spend the night. Not Bad.

The good impact of this situation, P.Dono called his best friend in Makassar to pick us for dinner and city tour. We didn't spend all night long in the city, since we had flight early morning in the next day. It was great, cause finally I could see the Losari Beach directly for the 1st time..haha..*nerd*

...................Early Morning in The Next Day

Flight to Luwuk was successfully on schedule
No more plane technical problem and absolutely No more delay.

The flight took about 1 hour 15 minutes. and it was quite smooth.
Not as smooth as in the air, the landing was so shocking me. When the plane wheels just touched down in land, the plane was quickly stopped and turn around. In fact, the runway was very short.
