Ground Agent Injured After Falling From A320 Doorway
A ground agent attending to a Transnusa Airlines flight at an Indonesian airport ended up in the hospital after falling from the door of the Airbus A320-200 aircraft. (www.gatechecked.com) Más...Sort type: [Top] [Newest]
As a former agent, I think I'd rather fall from the loading bridge than take the blue shower.
While pushing a pallet onto a C5 from a K loader, I almost fell between the two onto the ramp. The loader wasn't close enough to the aircraft and we were in a hurry. I learned a bit more about safety that day and luckily none of us got hurt. Falling from an A320 is a pretty good drop. It goes to show that if one isn't paying attention or using faulty equipment, bad things can happen.
That’s very true!
I'm glad they put a big red ring around the poor guy, otherwise I would never have seen him !
Being an Airbus at least there was a door attached to the aircraft. I hope he was not badly hurt and recovers quickly
