Probably a crew member without a NEMA issued ID tried to go into the terminal on a turnaround to buy a magazine, or some other such-like horrendous contravention of security;oh no I'm not joking it happens.

was a coventry bound B737 with unsafe gear indication-did not want/could not land at EGBE so decided to see if it could block our runway instead! begs the question why it did not go to Doncaster

Almost,
Ponder for a moment on the amount of fuel he may have had remaining, the extra distance to Doncaster and the fact that he probably left his gear down once the fault was apparent. I am sure you will soon come to the fully professional conclusion that flying past EMA would not be a sensible idea.

It did a few circuits at East Mids today & then ambled across to Norwich & can confirm it was 'OB.
East Mids has a longer runway than Birmingham & I believe wind direction was also a factor
