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. But it was only after a minute or so of rain that I realized I was now being pummelled into the ground by hail," said Flugsug. He adds: "Check the "halo" of hailstones bouncing off the fuselage before and after touchdown! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L7zDHtrymq0&feature=push-sd&attr_tag=c7_bYT07adUsdlCS%3A6
