Dasher8, your story is funny but provoked some odd replies. So what category does the follwoing fall into? Funny, unfunny, normal, typical etc etc.

Saw a A300F in Iraq recently. Parked with no chocks. Ground crew (6 off) rode up to the freight deck on a fork lift. Fork lift, 5ton capacity, offloaded the pallets with difficulty. Refueller parked under the starboard wing and nobody seemed to notice.

On completion of the unloading, the main freight door wouldn't indicate closed. So the a/c remained on the ground for 3 days before a temporary repair was effected and it flew away!

Now that is NOT funny.
