There is another photo of it looking from the other side which has been floating around for a couple of years at least.

Eight years ago - hardly news. Those photos have been posted to PPRuNe a number of times over the years.

In my youth I recall reading a similar scenario in the paper that happened at Tullamarine, however, from memory it was winter time and it was the strong winds that upended the jet? Does anyone recall the type and was it freight or passenger?

I remember from being at work that day,that the Korean Loadmaster ignored the advice from the Qantas Ramp supervisor and when the rampies refused to move the car off because they could see what was about to happen,the loadmaster took over with the resultant tipping of the aircraft.And then the loadie tried to blame the rampies.

I wonder what became of him.

It's believed the Korean loadie was last seen in green fatigues doing permanent night shift patrolling the North/South Korean border!!
He is buddied up with the Station Manager who was sent back after a security stuff up on KE812 ex-SYD, way back in June 2004.
