I really don't know if this belongs here, but it is all over the news tonight as it's local (for me anyways). Personally, I don't see what the big deal is:

A commercial jet carrying British Prime Minister Tony Blair and his family slightly overshot a runway at the Miami International Airport on Tuesday, but the plane was not damaged and no injuries were reported, officials said.

British Airways (nyse: BAB - news - people ) flight 209 from London ran over a couple airfield lights after landing around 6:15 p.m., but did not leave the pavement and returned to the gate under its own power, airport spokesman Marc Henderson said.

The plane stopped just past the official end of the runway, said Laura Brown, a Federal Aviation Administration spokeswoman.

"It landed safely on the runway. It slowed down. It was going at taxiway speed and they just missed a turn," Brown said.

Brown said the FAA would be looking into the incident, but she did not know whether there would be a formal investigation.

Blair was among the 343 passengers on the plane, but no additional information about his trip was available, U.S. Secret Service spokeswoman Kim Bruce said.

The pilot stopped the plane at the end of the runway because he could not see the lights to the taxiway.
