"HELLO THERE"
QANTAS were handling the loading/unloading under direction from the KAL Loadmaster. MD11 do not use a tail stand, they utilise weights on the nose gear or tether the nose gear to the earth. It is my understanding that KAL standard operating procedure is to not utilise these weights and elect to orchestrate the loading and unloading whilst keeping the COG forward thus preventing the rather large erection that resulted in our fair city. Check the ASTB site in 12 months for who was to blame.
