Dense forests and high mountains are common terrain in Papua . In the past, some planes fell into this area and went missing.
Mr. Dudi Sudibyo, an aviation analyst, said Papua is a particularly dangerous area for airplanes, not only because of the high mountains but also because the weather changes very quickly. The AP quoted him: 'I can say that a pilot who can fly there is capable of flying anywhere in the world.'
