I thought the tail skid was supposed to stop this.

Are we lined up with the Jetway now?
 
Makes it easier to get the cargo to the rear of the plane, I tell ya' whut....
 
Their mistake was not loading the centrifuges up front seeing as they were not coming off in Qatar.

That was the standard loading procedure for our C-207s in Alaska. The pilot would get in last to (hopefully) get the tail off the ground and once moving it stayed up....
