It is a custom modified 747 that Boeing uses to transport 787 Dreamliner parts. It landed by mistake at a small Kansas airport instead of the intended destination.

Right now they are probably figuring out how they're going to get her out of there, stay tuned.

I'm guessing light fuel, no cargo, and give her everything. The original destination field should be close by.

Another airliner made an unscheduled stop.

Luckily they had good brakes!

FYI: That wasn't a B747! It was a B737.
