Emirates Boeing 777-31HER A6-ECO has got stuck in the snow
after arriving at Birmingham Airport this afternoon....
.

.... the aircraft had arrived from Dubai operating flight "EK 029"
which had been rerouted from Heathrow due to that airport's
current weather related operating restrictions
.

.... while taxying the right undercarriage became stuck in the snow
.

.... while the aircraft was turning onto Taxiway Echo
.

Attempts were made to free the aircraft but when
these proved to be unsuccessful....
.

.... the decision was made to off load the passengers
before attempting to move the aircraft again
