Sukhoi Accident and POP CON ASIA 2012

Recently, Indonesia got bad accident, no.. sad accident is more proper way to describe it. It was a crash of Sukhoi Superjet 100, a Russian fly-by-wire commercial aircraft, during a joy flight / promotional flight, departed from Halim Perdanakusuma Airport, at Mt. Salak, Bogor, West Java, on Wednesday (09 April 2012).
The flight carried 37 passengers (mostly important persons from various local airlines, reporters, etc) and 8 Russian crew on board. The latest news told that only a little chance of survival, the tilt of the cliff is about 85 degree and by the photos (you can see here), the debris scattered all over the place and dragged down to near the end of the cliff, this is just my speculation, please don't take it as official final calculation.
Corpses had been found by SAR team and is being carried to nearby National Police Hospital for identification, by the impact of the crash i think i don't need to tell you about the corpses condition for etiquette matter, deep condolences for the victim's family and relations.

I won't speculate anything about the crash causes, since i'm not an aviation expert or anything.

People, i ask you PLESE DON'T MAKE ANY CONCLUSIONS, it confuses people, no joke, seriously, this is life-death matter. I've tired of random-funny-chaos maker-negative thinker comments, speculations, conclusions, from random people which is suddenly become a professor of aviation.

Please always filtering the news about this issue by searching some trusted sources like aviation sites, etc.
People there are professional enough to face this kind of thing. But still, let's wait to KNKT's final decision to clear everything.



















Here's the source i've always updated (local) news from :

- indoflyer.net (indonesian site of aviation things)
- gerryairways.blogspot.com (trusted aviation consultant)
- ilmuterbang.com (facebook) (facebook ver. of ilmuterbang.com, forum lookalike)

Now about my PassbordeR comic project, since (the story supervisor-aviation consultant-which is thanks God, somehow kinda likes comic and animation too) Mr. Gerry Soejatman (the owner of a blog i wrote above) is very busy with this Sukhoi accident (bow to him, he's been on morning tv news twice as informants), i think i have to do research alone for some moments.

Right at the best moment, the comic's first chapter rough sketch pages got rejected, and i have to make some revision pages, yay.. *nice one Bang Udil, cheers for making the best comic together!!*

This illustration magically became the starter of lot of similar POP CON ASIA 2012
illustrations made by various Indonesian illustrator / comic artists. Esp. the blue BG.

Umm.. what else, oh yeah, POP CON ASIA 2012!

One 'seems to be' sickest pop culture convention on Jakarta Convention Centre, scheduled 27 June - 1 July 2012. Great, after my final exams! I plan to come there and.. 'derp'ing around with some comic artists.
Please refer to their pop con facebook page for further information. Let's meet there fellas! :D

In the end, i realized i haven't done my works yet,... bye!!

*rushed back to the damn things.
