a Boeing 747, just like other planes and big "objects" are very heavy. and stopping them is very difficult, the planes tires would explode due to the speed of rotation, and the breaks would not be effective. besides the stopping distance of a 747 landing at 500mph is HUGE, no airstrip in the world an accommodate it
