Thanks for the info. You are absolutely right that pilots need to understand the risks to ramp workers. OTOH whilst I understand the rampies are often in a hurry if they stand on the stand centreline, chocks in hand, waiting for me to taxi the aircraft onto the gate, they'll be in for a long wait...and my pet peeve - stop diving under the ********* aircraft the moment it stops yet before both the engines have been shutdown and/or the anti-clunks have been turned off.....


dhc2.... well it's clearly not at the "cosmic/ need to know /UK/US Eyes only" level of confidentiality since you've already found another link to it and we are freely discussing it here. If your source is looking to raise safety awareness on the Ramp then great, but if he/she thinks he/she has discovered some shocking scandal or conspiracy along the lines of the grassy knoll I'm afraid he/she is going to be disappointed..when the article going to appear and in which newspaper?
