haha thats a great photo... my buddies played a trick on me once, taking away the ladder while i was loading up the cargo hold on a EMB-145, i had to take a pretty big leap out of that thing!

Hmmmmmm I wonder if the markings on the ladder can help identify what carrier that 767 belongs to

i can relate, fell out of one due to that stupid metal flap... my hip hurt like hell for a week!

OUCH! that sounds painful, one of the worst falls i ever saw was one of my buddies was putting the engine covers on a GIV and slipped, he fell and hit his head on the wing, then slid off and fell on his back on the ground
