Gut feeling is the parked-on-the-bay QJ was taxiing onto the bay as the outbound QJ vacated the bay and then clipped the Network F100.

I doubt the F100 was parked so wrong that it was in the way of an aircraft vacating the bay next to it. But that is also possible.


ParkingHell, you probably jest about Take5's. At least I hope you do. It's been tried on before, but resisted I might add!
OH&S people on large Minesites live for this sort of stuff, they will try and take over and run the whole investigation and with nil knowledge of aviation. Then put Qantas through the ringer and it will go on and on.
They will feast on this for months.
