Remark Photographer
HL7372 (cn 48408/457) Not something you see everyday, a Korean Air MD-11 freighter sitting on its tail, this fateful day in 2002 brought one very unsual sight for me to see, the cranes are being used to help straighten her up.

The crane straps are to let her down gently. After the load is balanced out.

MD-11 converted has that problem, the same happened two times to Alitalia Cargo MD-11, one time in FCO and another time in MXP. Nice shot, very unusual!

The same fact appened two times on Alitalia Cargo MD-11 freighters. Very spectacular to see live I suppose

Thats a 1 in a million shot, well done! One query though, if the planes nose lifted on its own the/n why are the crane straps underneath the fuselage

A visitor from United States posted Fri June 6, 2008:
OK this MD11 rotated a bit too early.
