Only have to look at Midwest 5481 that was a severe case of a ramp failure.
Poor choice of example. The elevator was incorrectly rigged two nights previously which resulted in insufficient elevator authority, this combined with the C of G issue caused the accident. The NTSB stated neither problem on its own would have caused the accident.
