Airliner sitting on it's tail? How does this happen?

What does that have to do with anything? Please explain your reasoning. Are you talking about the plane looking like a hydraulic low rider car that can pop a wheelie? If so, maybe just state that and not link it to race.

It could also be a 'carolina squat'.

I had to look that one up; hadn't seen that before other than on some motorcycles with the big wheel in front and lowered rear.

Didn’t even know there is such a thing as a tail stand.

Even the little Twin Otter has a tail stand.

Its what happens if you do a lift-kit but you can't afford the parts for the rear end.

Flew into MDW yesterday and most of the SWA planes had them.
