Bmi A321 managed to find its way onto a patch of grass at Heathrow last night around 23:00, no pax, positioning for maintenance.
Don't they know you need a turboprop to properly cut the grass?

More seriously, I assume that with hard ground, the scenic diversions are more just an embarrassment than when it's soft and the wheels sink in. Or is it advisable to stop and check the tyres for FOD after such an excursion?
