Many years ago at JFK, a Ransome Airlines Nord 262 was taxiing out one dark and windy night. A wheeled luggage cart suddenly surged out of another airline's ramp as they passed by, and struck the Nord behind the wing in the passenger area. I doubt the pilots could even see it. As I recall, there was lengthy litigation about who was responsible for the unsecured cart.
An "act of god?"
