Lufthansa plane skids off the runway at Paris airport | Daily Mail Online

I guess the ground clearance of those engines is different to the ceo which does not help in these cases.

However, on taxiing to the terminal, the left main gear wheel rolled off the tarmac and onto the grass, he added. There were no reports of any injuries and the aircraft continued on to its parking position.

Oh no, here comes another 15 pages worth of opinions on this :E

Headline and photo caption compared are a great example of "journalie".

Did it because we are told that

All passengers and crew disembarked safely and boarded a bus to the terminal.
You just have to love the quality of proof reading at the Mail.:ok:

Well it didn't make it to the gate in time to operate the return flight to FRA, which was cancelled. It appears to be still at CDG 5 hours later.

The BEA are reportedly investigating. So not such a non-event, after all ...

From some pictures looks like they may have gone off the piste at BD10, was that formerly known as 'ze Delta loop'?

The CDG layout was designed by an artiste with all those curlicues, intersections and odd shapes.
