In the early 70's a TAA (Trans Australia Airlines) 727 encountered a Canadian Pacific Airlines DC8, late in the takeoff roll.

I believe that the 727 sliced it's belly open on the fin of the under tow aircraft and deposited numerous bags in the close vicinity of Sydney airport, before landing safely. Having just found the report, I'll have to read it myself.

This link is to the ATSB web site investigation synopsis. From there you can download the whole report.
