just back from GLA and seen the 777 with the left main in the grass......having spoke to airport worker apparently the CPT is management....possibly even the Ops. Manager.Director...obviously this will be confirmed over the next day or two no doubt. They were on taxy way A at GLA and turned onto RW27 at the intersection instead of the intersection for 23 which is not that impossible if you aren't familiar with the field. By the looks of it they realised and tried to turn back onto the taxy way too late and the left main wnt on the grass.....from its position I'd say the nose would of had to seen some grass action as well. I was fairly close....linig up on 23 after back tracking.

Hope no one looses any jobs......
