Can't recall what airplane it was that did that, but I do know it was a taxiing accident. Brakes weren't set or something like that.
Pretty sure that T-tailed twin was hauling freight, not people (whew!).

How can you be smart enough to own (or at least be allowed to fly) a Saratoga, yet still be dumb enough to do that? I'm not the brightest bulb on the Xmas tree, but I ain't that stupid.
