LION AIR PLANE CRASHES INTO SEA OFF INDONESIAN COAST

INVESTIGATORS are trying to work out how an Indonesian passenger plane overshot the runway at Bali airport before crashing into the sea. 

All 101 passengers and seven crew on the Lion Air flight survived, although dozens were said to be injured and at least seven were taken to hospital with head wounds and broken bones. 

The new Boeing 737-800 had been trying to land at Denpasar's Ngurah Rai International Airport about 3.30pm local time (1730 AEST) on Saturday when it crashed. No Australians were on the plane, the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade in Canberra said.
