Boeing 737 stuck in an airport

UPDATE 2: The Boeing 747 is still stuck at the airport. They are busy offloading the cargo and fuel in the hope that they can get it light enough to take off from the short runway. The tug that they had to bring over to turn the 747 around, developed tech problems en route, and is stuck on the cnr of Webbin & 21st Str. The last time I heard of a pilot landing a B747 at a too short airport for take-off, was when Capt Dennis Spence landed the two SAA B747's at Rand Airport.
