- Date: March 9, 2009
- Aircraft: McDonnell Douglas MD-90
- Location: Jakarta-Soekarno-Hatta, Banten, Indonesia
- Fatalities: 0
- Phase of flight: Approach and landing
- Cause: The approach was not stabilized and the landing was made off the centreline with asymmetric thrust reverser deployment, which led to the runway excursion.
Lion Air flight LNI793, an MD-90 from Makassar, landed at Jakarta in heavy rain and a gusty crosswind. It touched down left of the centreline and drifted right, and only the right thrust reverser deployed. The aircraft stopped on the runway shoulder with its main gear collapsed, and everyone on board got out without injury.
