On 13 April 2013, an Indonesian registered B737-800 aircraft collided with water on approach to Denpasar Airport, Indonesia.

As the accident took place in Indonesia, the Indonesian National Transportation Safety Committee (NTSC) is responsible for investigating this occurrence, consistent with Indonesia’s obligations as State of Occurrence under Annex 13 to the Convention on International Civil Aviation Aircraft Accident and Incident Investigation (Annex 13).

The NTSC requested ATSB assistance to seek weather and visibility reports from Australian flight crews operating into Denpasar close to the time of the accident.  To facilitate this support, the ATSB appointed an accredited representative in accordance with paragraph 5.23 of Annex 13 and, in order to protect the information supplied by the NTSC, commenced an external investigation under the Transport Safety Investigation Act 2003. The ATSB completed its work as accredited representative on 26 April 2013.

The National Transport Safety Committee of Indonesia is responsible for releasing the investigation report.
