RIP to those lost. You can see the crew were trying hard. :(
I know I'll be taking a few extra minutes to make very sure the main deck load is secure from now on!

You mean your previous checks of the main deck cargo security were merely cursory?
I, without fail, always checked that boxes with arrows had the arrows pointing UP and that each and every lock on the main deck was UP and locked.
Well your X-ray vision must make you better equipped than everybody else:D

The poster was, I'm sure, not saying that he did not check before, but is reminding us to be renewed in our vigilance of checking the load.
A reminder we all need!

Requalify all ex F/E 's as Loadmasters. Reduced salaries but supervising loads is obviously important. Especially part loads.
