Boeing 787 lands on frozen Antarctic runway

A Boeing 787 made an icy landing at the Troll Airfield in Queen Maud Land, Antarctic.

On board were 45 researchers and 12 tonnes of research equipment, sent to the area as part of the Norwegian Polar Institute's operations in the area.

It's the largest passenger plane to have ever landed on the continent, the Institute said.
