When I was an Air O in the 82nd, every month you had to come up with enough heavy equipment loads to fill 5 C-141s (up to four platforms per bird)...no one ever wanted to drop their vehicle...a Sheridan knocked out one entire aircraft. They weigh a little over 15 tons empty, no problem.

I think this was just sloppy rigging, and someone should be sweating bullets.
