I have no idea how the complex computers didn’t detect the load unbalance at takeoff.
It is baffling to say the least.

It does seem rather unlikely. Perhaps there was a load shift which begs the question, why was the load not better secured.

I saw this a few hours ago and didn’t post it because the timestamp on the video says 2/1/2013. I suppose the date could be off on the camera. I was waiting to see if anyone else reported it...liveleak appears to be the only source at the moment and I would have thought it would be all over the news.

Looks like an awfully steep take off.

Departure stall due to aft CG?
What a horrible thing to see.
RIP, guys.

I’ve been struggling with videos a lot lately and I think shockwave flash is at the center of it.

I thought that is what a Cargomaster was for. worked with KC-135s.

Thanks. The Live Leak vid doesn’t work for me now either.

Now it does.
I guess it's hit and miss.

They've reported on it but not a lot.

Yeah, I’ve never seen such a large plane that vertical and stalled before. Sad for all on board.

I read on another site that the loadmaster was onboard and was one of the seven killed. That was difficult to watch.
