I find it almost unbelievable that the pilot did not sense that the aircraft felt funny taxiing with a block that size and weight dragged behind.

Weird that he did not hear a rumbling noise! Surely he must have noticed something wrong on takeoff with the acceleration, increased noise as the aircraft gained speed and odd handling on takeoff ?

Thank God that projectile did not hit anyone as it fell from the sky!
I hope they took the pilots licence off him for a year for such dangerous, inexcusable antics.
