No, C130 style...out the back. Do the 747 cargo planes have a drop down ‘tailgate’ like a C130? Not sure. But I imagine if they HAD to go such a route a standard 47 could be modified.

727’s have rear cargo door and stairs. How high does one drop this thing from? Below 20,000 feet, I’d want a C-130 doing the business.
