Quick question why is the ac sat on it's rear in the first photo.
It can also happen. If an aircraft, lets say a GR4 from the OCU just for example ;-) takes the arrestor wire and then applies the parking brake when the wire is still under tension. As the arrestor wire springs backwards, the aircraft will pivot around it's main wheels! Until the taileron is touching the ground and the nose wheel is in the air.
