This Boeing 777-200 Freighter of Air China Cargo was approachung runway 22L at Liege when the crew of the aircraft suddenly decided to go around. I am not quite sure why they initiated a go around but I assume it was caused by blocked taxiways at the airport. Due to the snow only two taxiways were open at the end of the runway to vacate. Unfortunately a Boeing 737 of ASL and a Boeing 767 of Challenge Cargo blocked both of these taxiways while they were on their way to the active runway. I am not 100% sure but that would be my guess for the go around reason.
After a while the Air China Cargo B777 returned to the airport and landed on runway 22L. About four hours earlier the B777 had to be diverted to Amsterdam due to dense fog at Liege Airport. It was quite a ride for the crew of this aircraft today although I assume they switched the flight crews at Amsterdam.
I also filmed a few other planes which arrived at Liege during these lovely snow conditions. The Qatar B777 was the first aircraft which arrived at LGG after sunrise that day and it` s just mesmerizing to see the B777 arriving during perfect light conditions in the snow right after sunrise.
