Qantas Airways gets bogged in mud.

A QantasLink aircraft traveling from Brisbane Airport (BNE/YBBN) to Rockhampton Airport (ROK/YBRK) got bogged on Monday night after landing and taxiing to the parking bay in Rockhampton.

QF1798 had landed normally at 09.17 Zulu (7.17pm local) on runway 15 but the pilot inadvertently guided the aircraft across soft grassy ground and became stuck just before getting to the terminal.

The passengers were able to disembark normally via stairs onto the tarmac.

It's expected it will take a couple of days before the plane can be moved but the bogging will not impact on arrivals and departures from the airport.
