An Emirates A380, flight EK39 to Birmingham has been pummelled by a hail storm as it landed from Dubai. But the superjumbo took all that in its stride as captured in the latest video from flugsnug on Youtube.  Read: World's Best Airlines for 2019 "I could see, horizon-to-horizon, the black sky as the Emirates monster turned onto finals, so knew there was a downpour coming.
